Lug width is wrong - it's 19mm. You'll want to replace the strap too, because these bracelets are just nasty. SNSX7 watches can be had for between £50 and £70 on Amazon UK and they're excellent watches at anything up to £100, but don't buy from MD at this price if you're from the UK. I modified mine with an Explorer dial and Rolex hands from Dagaz (the "marks" are actually fluff that is on the outside of the crystal, not inside!).

DarkprinceluciferWhat model number is that top left image? Really like the gray sunburst dial.

It's the SNSX79K, as stock. The rest of the images are the same watch, but modified.

DarkprinceluciferThanks... your photo really brings out the sunburst in the dial much better than the stock photos. I'm liking it. Hard choice between this and the grey orient that's also for sale right now... $40 more but it has come features that offset that premium.

The sunburst is really nice, and far more obvious than any of the stock photos I've seen show. I only bought this Seiko 5 because I had the Explorer mod in mind, but it is a great watch as it comes. That said, the Orient does have some great features, you're right - the hacking movement and domed crystal being the big attractions for me. I'd love to pick one up myself, but I hardly ever wear a dress watch. The Seiko is more versatile but the Orient does "dress" better.
