I am the client for the watch in the video. I am rather new to watch modding and I rather enjoy the color scheme of the Rolex GMT Pepsi. I could have purchased a new Rolex (could not find one) and I could have purchased a fake Rolex. I did not want to do that. Instead, I decided to mimic the color scheme of the Rolex Pepsi with a Seiko. I have two Seikos', a 2nd gen Orange Monster and the SK 007 Dive watch. I felt that Usman created a unique, great looking watch that is exactly what I wanted. I must say that based on the comments below, I might look into a 12 hr. bezel. Frankly, I did not realize that was an option, thanks for the tips regarding that. In closing, I felt that the video was fantastic and it was fun watching my watch being built...
I think the 24h indication looks much better and if you want a reason for it you can just use it as an AM PM to 24h converter. But not all has to make sense in the watch hobby :)
Truly a work of art. I just picked up one of these from a different builder (I didn't see this first - sorry!) and I'm beyond excited to get it. Outstanding video.
Nice work... professional and very clean~! After retirement from the Boeing Company I worked as a professional watchmaker for about 10 years specializing in Swiss made mechanical watches... Rolex mostly. However, I have nothing against Seiko and your watches look very fine~!
Beautiful video. I feel really compelled to build my own Seiko Mod. I’d been collecting pieces and tools for the last 2 years. I’m sure that for the end of Summer 2021 mine will be built. I was not very fond of the Pepsi bezel until I saw you drinking an actual Pepsi. Thanks for sharing!!!
Nice work. Question: do standard factory torques exist for the case cover on water resistant watches ? I'm new to seeing these builds and mod's, and just curious.
Drinking a Pepsi, wearing a Pepsi, gorgeous watch. Nothing like a domed sapphire crystal to really make a watch look impressive. I put domed sapphire crystals on two Casio Duros which really made a big difference.
The Rolex day date must be part of the list. It can pass as sporty or dressy and is also within the price range of some of the listed pieces. Even within rolex, it's somehow of in a world of its own
It sounds a bit loosen when turning the bezel, not sure if you having same issue there. it happened with my mod as well, I later found out replacing a slightly larger size (0.8mm) bezel gasket would fix the problem for the aftermarket bezel.

@@TheDubaiExpat Good advice, thank you...
just get an aftermarket rolex dial and put it in the seiko movement/case
I can sell you the same Rolex pepsi new.. let me know if you interested
@@TheDubaiExpat how do i reach you.
Story telling & editing, just like any mini film is just too good here Niko 😃👍 the final touch Usman drinking the Pepsi is top stuff. Good one
What a masterpiece of videography. So relaxing to watch.
*The can of Pepsi at the end was **________** * ***_(add your favorite "great" adjective)_*
loved it
Phenomenal
lol
Went flat
...the final touch that made the whole video just sublime.

Amazing! Beautiful job and love the reward at the end. Well deserved

For a professional like yourself to compliment on this mod made my day

Thank you :)!
Did you build your watch?
Although I'm not into mods much, the wrist shot in the beginning of the Rolex Pepsie really made me want one and so was worth watching this video 😜
Great work by your mate. I modded my SKX. Replacing the seconds hand is by far the hardest part of the project. 🤙🏼
It was the hard thing for me to learn! You need such a steady hand for this
Loved watching this video. Excellent videography. We need to see more.
Nice work. Question: do standard factory torques exist for the case cover on water resistant watches ?
I'm new to seeing these builds and mod's, and just curious.
I have a custom all black one.
It’s a sort of a must have watch for a collector
Really enjoyed watching this!
So meditative and relaxing, real kind of art, thank you!)
Fantastic build, stunning looking and the way you made your video was great, what a pleasure to watch.
Been wanting to do this exact project for a VERY long time.
Cool modding of another Seiko TDE! Keep it up
What workmanship!
Skilled hands. Thanks to the watch maker Mr. Usman.
More of these videos needed!!
So skilful. Great video. I’d love to learn more about modding.
Not gonna lie, it felt like Dexter at the start of the video. Preparing to kill someone.
xD
Hahaha
Lmfao
Awesome. Just ordered one. To me this is not a Fake Rolex, but a really fun and great looking Seiko.
Great video, learrn't so much, I have many of those tools but had no clue how to use many of them.
Impressive, great modification, your work is the best and very professional.
Love it, i fell asleep to this, now its morning and im rewatching it
xD
Seiko case is what make it Legendary..
All I need now is a pool table 😁
love this video! as a modder myself, you did an excellent job!
Excellent workmanship and interesting video. Thanks for sharing.
Drinking a Pepsi, wearing a Pepsi, gorgeous watch. Nothing like a domed sapphire crystal to really make a watch look impressive. I put domed sapphire crystals on two Casio Duros which really made a big difference.
That would be good with a Seiko GMT.
Wow! Can he or you make a video of the seiko in a gmt batman? 😁
Absolutely gorgeous 👌🏻🙏🏻
Excelente Vídeo, una obra de Arte, I love it.
The Rolex day date must be part of the list. It can pass as sporty or dressy and is also within the price range of some of the listed pieces. Even within rolex, it's somehow of in a world of its own
Nice mod! Love it. Can you specify What model of Seiko5 is this? Thanks
Background music and videography getting better, keep it up. Thanks for the video.
Love and respect from India.
Great sharing. Thanks 🙏
Lol, love the lab coat. I thought, oh okay, this guy is a legit watch maker... Then I see the crystal press etc and thought, oh okay, maybe not lol
Lol! But focus on the final result :p
That ladies and gentlemen is ART
Beautiful video and beautiful result
You should do a Pepsi 12hr bezel insert instead of the 24hr so it could still be functional as a second time zone. Great build though!
Stunning work.
Wonderful TDE
Looks amazing! May I ask how much were all the mods?
beauty, is their a gmt movement avail?
Transformation, a whole new watch
Whats the bracelet?
Beautiful watch!!!
Thats sharp looks good!
It sounds a bit loosen when turning the bezel, not sure if you having same issue there. it happened with my mod as well, I later found out replacing a slightly larger size (0.8mm) bezel gasket would fix the problem for the aftermarket bezel.
Seiko realy goes back in time
One of the greatest watch videos I ave seen. Love your story telling skills.
I would've personally liked a pearl or white dial, I'd buy that
Expert Level. Superb Keep it up.
nice sharing!
how did you take the crown/pin out after installing n aligning the hands, before case installation ?
Great job, enjoyed the video. What would you do to a Sarb017?
Billardtisch als Werkbank, köstlich! :'D
Masterful!
In love with the arabic day dial, the simple things
Really beautiful ☺️
Really amazing.. What are the tools and equipment for mod beginners? I want to learn after watching.
Really nice mod. Could you tell us
what kind of strap you are using? Would like to have that on my Seiko.
Thank you.
Love it . So you provide mod services ? Thank you
Wow!💯🥵
Very interesting. Thanks
the hole so close gives me such terror feeling lmao imagine losing a piece xD
xD
nice ! where can i find bezel like that for my seiko 5 please thanks !
I also hit a custom seiko gmt but my crown is on 3. Don't know why yours isn't. I'd also prefer a ceramic bezel. But it's nicely done
loved the music!
Amazing Video, Music & Skills!
I guess Seiko should push out Pepsi Bezel on their GMT line-up.
12:29 Wouldn't be a Seiko without a misaligned bezel.
It wasn't misaligned. I ensured it. I think it's the camera angle and the bazel is 1 click away from 12oclock
Super!
Nice touch with the Pepsi.
No kidding!👌👍
so fulfilling
Great new intro and cool Video!
Love it
What circumference do you have around your wrist? I'm looking to buy a modded seiko but they seem pretty small. Thankful for any help!
Gotta admit this looks better than all black look one
Watch looks a million bucks!
MISTA MISTA !! I need a bepsiii 👌🏽👍🏼🇺🇸
Where did u get the jubilee bracelet from? For the srpd
Good job Sir
Nice video! but did you get rid of the bezel gasket at 8’48?
No, it comes with 2. One was pre-installed
Que bonito ha quedado.....te lo compro 🤩
