SNSX75 Upgrade
Wanted to experiment with doing an actual watch “build” without spending a ton of money, so I picked up an SNXS75 from Jomashop for $135 and figured it would be a perfect platform to mess around with.
Mods:
-MonsterWatches gold fluted bezel
-MonsterWatches double-domed sapphire crystal
-MonsterWatches two-tone Jubilee with butterfly clasp
-eBay 7S26-3160 solid caseback
Kept the original dial, hands, movement and case.
The entire build took me about 20 minutes using a cheap amazon watch repair kit. After removing links to fit my 7.25" wrist, the finished watch weighs 126g, which gives it a surprisingly substantial and much more premium feel compared to the stock SNXS.
Also have to give MonsterWatches credit for the shipping. I ordered the parts on 10 AUG, they shipped on 11 AUG, and they were already in Germany by 14 AUG. German DHL took a few more days to get them the rest of the way to me, because of course it did.
Really happy with how this turned out. Maybe I'll attempt a movement upgrade in the future but for now this is perfect.
