Thank you for the kind words - always welcome if you swing by Seoul Korea 馃憤
I didn鈥檛 want to do any irreversible actions to the stock ST1 too, since I really like the stock configuration as well... so the only way was to fit a vintage case to it. Super expensive mod but well worth it!
Hello, I will be in Seoul at Christmas. Any vintage stores that you would recommend to visit?

Watch scene is pretty dead in Korea unfortunately, think people that consider vintage pieces as "used, secondhand, old"... 馃檨 only bling bling and moderns around, or debating endlessly and fighting about strange issues. Think WUS.
I frequent a place called NOSTIME, though. One of the very few (if not the only?) places that treat vintage properly.
If you might want to meet up PM me! 馃憤
Hi,
This may be a stupid question, buuut...
Is it possible to modify the fois by replacing the sub dials to create a reverse pandaesque fois?
You could replace the FOIS dial with a Mitsukoshi dial... but the final result should not be that different from the ck2998 pulsometer. So if you like the design, I would rather buy the pulsometer directly. There is one up for sale in the private sales section.
Um, doing the panda mod to a speedy reduced won't be called a Mitsu mod. It would be called probably the Marui mod because the Marui speedy is known to be the panda configuration of the reduced model.
If you get hold of the parts you'd be able to do the swap. For the reduced model people usually just buy a Marui straight off the bat because mod parts and costs aren't economical.
As for the regular speedy straight-lug Mitsukoshi mod, @BatDad has done a beautiful mod that you might want to look into.
Beauty. What did you trade it for? Would love one of these.
