Here it is.  I enjoy my Black Sammy so much, I had to get a white one, too.  Thinking of modifying this one with Plongeur hands and a black NATO strap.  The Black Sammy is at NEWW getting some new saber hands from MKII installed as we speak (Duarte tells me he may have pics for me this evening :cool:).  Am I alone in feeling that the stock hands on these watches are way too small?

I think a cool mod on those (since you have both) would be to switch the bezels.  Black bezel on the White Sammi and white bezel on the Black Sammi.

Mike Wright did the white bezel on Black Sammi for an ultimately cool look!

Congrats!!!The Sammi is one fine SEIKO!!! Just like the Monsters and the Knights!!!

The best thing is if one can get the Ti Sammi's hands and have them in a Black Sammi SS, that would be a very nice if not the nicest Sammi!

That's a pretty good idea Ken.  I was thinking of maybe swapping the chapter rings, but the bezel thing is interesting!.  Anyway, here is a picture from Duarte at NEWW of my Black Samurai with it's new hands.  I think they look great.  Different enough to be noticeable, but still slender enough to not completely depart from the original aesthetic, IMO.  I'm thrilled with how it looks.

Looks good!

Hey, Mike, could we persuade you to post a couple of pictures of your "Oreo Sammi"?

Looks good, Mike.  It's just not my preference.  Thanks for posting the pic, though.  Hope your pet is doing alright!
