    Seiko monster dial swap

    Has anyone here put the original monster dial into the more recent 4r36 one ? I have a spare dial and I prefer the 1st gen look but like the hacking /handwinding option

    Here’s mine



    Stems are not interchangeable, hence mine looks like a Gen 1 but with a Gen 2 crown.

    That’s exactly what I’d like to achieve - was it difficult or was it done for you ?

    It wasn't too difficult, but I do tinker a bit. The only tricky bit is the hand setting.

    That’s the bit that concerns me !
    I’ll see if I find a suitable donor and then I’ll see how brave I feel :)
