Invicta 8926OB Mod - Milsub Homage
This is my latest mod using an Invicta watch and creating a Milsub homage. The Milsub was issued to UK Special Forces in the 1970s. About 1,200 were made with the majority being 'lost'. There's approximately 200 in circulation worldwide and one recently sold for £170k.

A couple of things I forgot to mention - it has a screw-down crown and the movement has hand-winding and hacking.
Nice job! Looks great.
I love videos like this, great work
Wow, you did a great job on this.
it would have been a great video if you recorded the actual procedure on at least one of the mods done on this watch. its the in between stuff i need to see, not just the before and after.
That looks fantastic. If you're like me, and don't think tool watches should have exhibition backs, the plain steel Submariner case back from Raffles Time fits the Invicta case perfectly.
You sound so much like Lee Priest it’s not even funny. Great mod
Very nice, whats your price in polishing them?
Invicta limited edition watch cost
I want to modify my Invicta pro diver 36mm. Can you please tell me what diameter of the dial should I buy?
28.5
I'm glad I saw your video. I definitely would like to change the hands and dial .I ordered the watch with the scalloped bezel to save time and effort. The biggest problem I'm having is choosing the parts ,the array is staggering.
I have all 4 colors coming. New to watches. I think I will polish the bezels only. I will probably leave the green watch completely unpolished so it keeps a more military vibe. It is actually the cream colored watch that looks the most striking with the right color strap. I almost did not get the cream one because the cream strap it comes on, makes it look so washed out and boring. Nice video.
Or you could just order the 31290 model. Lol
Very nice. I considered polishing my 805, but decided to leave it as is for now. I agree, the standard strap is too stiff and essentially useless. Mine's on a NATO in the factory olive green.
Looks like the Marine Nationale Tudor Sub and much better with the original bezel insert. I'm going to order the patina blue snowflake for mine. Nice vid thanks
What a great conversation. Probably the best one I've ever seen. You should make a little business out of this. I would certainly pay to have mine converted. I'm sure other people would as well. Great video.
That's a nice looking watch. Considering a purchase in the next sale. How is the durability of the gold tone?
thinking about polishing my 809. did you have to remove the movement and the crystal when you polished your watches? or just kept them on?
Hi man, i got the green sn017 and I'm looking for a rubber strap with solid endlinks that will fit with this? Do you know any 3rd party seller? Thank you
Great job looks top job👍
the 807 looks mesmerizing... i have the 803...
Love this video. The watch looks awesome. Could you add some links to the companies you got the mod parts from for those of us who are thinking of doing the same?
Hello Mate, where did you get the bezelinsert from?
Is this the link for the dial replacement theyobokies.com/?mod=product&sec=item&task=detail&id=866
Can you do the Invicta 1953 Mod and can you add the link for the parts mate. 😉
Which model is the Seiko?
How much for a build like this?
It's rare that I find a review of something rare/obscure with this quality of both production and information.
what are the bezel measurements?
The Invicta pro diver is on sale on Amazon right now a good time to buy a potential mod watch.
its a Manero autodate homage
Where can i buy a ghost ceramic bezel?
Did u changed the bezel or only the insert?
Have you thought of taking the Cyclops off ?
oh noooo ... unpolished it looks better :/
What did it cost for parts to do this mod I’ve wanted a mil sub for years but obviously can’t afford one!
take this channel to the moon! subbed!
czcams.com/video/kt1nmSqS-Ps/video.html Look at this link about what to do with the blank dial.
I just got one and it says 100 meters???? I'm sure that it's a mistake and should say 30 meters like yours...
I wondered whether mod this watch will be cheaper than buying Steinhart version ha ha. This is beautiful man. Kudos
Then there’s the limited edition red one from amazon that’s really rare
not modded ?
@@alfrenzbongcodin216 I don’t think so. The dial was just red and the strap was blue. Odd combination, but unique.
Looks fantastic, especially in that watch winder case. 👍
Hi mate fellow from the uk, can you link where you got the mil sub bezel from? Cheers
I'd like to know that too please.
Great reveiw, luv the A.King ( new model) this will suffice, because of 7-8 thou.cost, will be takeing a serious look at itt. Thanx. P.S. Tx.
I'm bouncing between the 803 and 809 with a nice black nylon barton strap. Also that leather with the blue dial looks fantastic!
Invicta should hire you in the design department in charge of tasteful aesthetics. Would love to see an Invicta or Oreint based 1918 Trench Watch and/or a Hamilton dial style 1950's Railroad watch.
Well done, can you put in the notes the exact parts you ordered. Were they specific to the Invicta or generic seiko. Were you happy with the Lume?
Walk around the garden to compose myself, pmsl. Get yourself a magnifying light. I know the frustrations of hand installs but learned with trial and error. Another tip don't use your pad when putting hands on. If you notice your pad is soft in the centre which is not ideal. Great build
Which model is the Seiko?
Especially when you compare this 5080 to that particular Seiko, I wish they wouldn't have put lume on the hands.
Hi... I have a 8926OB that I don't really want to mod, but do want to upgrade. Is that bezel ceramic? If so where'd you get it. Also I'd like to put a sapphire crystal in it, do you happen to know the crystal dimensions? I'd like to pre-order one and have it on hand before I pop out the one in it now. BTW, Very nice vid, Thanks
Hi it’s an aluminium bezel insert fromTiger Concept. You can get ceramic inserts on EBay. I think the crystal size for the 8926OB is 30mm.
