Here is another keeper I've had a long time. Orange knight dial, 6105 bezel and a 20mm Yobkies BOR bracelet w/22 endlinks.

Thanks, except for the bracelets. I like the Seiko parts because it seems less of a hack job to a vintage 6309 and it has the matching/good lume etc.
Got a Tuna dial and hands that will go into a 6309 and a Bubble Boy high dome crystal that I need to get to Duarte soon.

I like most of the modded stuff, especially when modifying handsets. Sorry Dave, but I don't like the MM300 dial in a 6309 though....it reminds me of someone putting a BMW roundel on a 1987 Honda Civic - the Civic is a decent car on its own so why cheese it up?

Here is a modded 6309 729A, circa 1986 I recently picked up. Case, crown, and crystal are original, aftermarket dial, hands etc had been fitted.
It's my first vintage Seiko.
