Giorgetto Giugiaro and his love of bold design. I can't picture a more perfect creative partner for Seiko than the legendary Italian. After being made famous by its inclusion in the original Aliens film (1986, dir. James Cameron), the Ripley was reissued in 2015 in limited numbers.

Features: 

7T12 movement. A 60-minute chronograph, 24-hour dial, stop-watch with split/lap time, and a subtle date window at 3 o’clock. I’ve just changed the battery, and according to Seiko it should last 5 years with normal usage. +/- 15 seconds per month.

Limited Edition. Numbered 108 out of 3000!

Unique Design. Originally designed by the legendary car designer Giorgetto Giugiaro, and faithfully recreated by Seiko in 2016. The 1980s 7A28 version of the “Ripley” was originally designed by Giugiaro to give racing car drivers easy and quick access to the chronograph pushers. However, the outlandish visuals of the watch landed it a role in Aliens as James Cameron decided the watch, and other Giugiaro designed Seiko watches, looked futuristic enough to be worn by the cast of Aliens!

Tank Tread Bracelet. Feels as fantastic to wear as it looks. A matte, almost bead-blasted titanium-grey finish. The bracelet is fits a maximum 7.5 inches wrist.

Condition: In very fantastic condition overall. The hyper-polished case back, like many SCED035, has been scratched by its own bracelet. There is one obvious mark near the top chrono-pusher. The case back has been professionally engraved with a name and date. The markings are represented accurately in the pictures. 

Scope: Original box and papers.

Do I have to pay customs or taxes?

It depends on so many factors, including but not limited to; the cost of the watch, the type of watch you've bought (vintage, new, or modified), and the import and tax laws of your country. If you're unsure we recommend checking the import laws that relate to your country before ordering.

Are your watches water resistant?

All of our watch mods are tested by our own pressure depth testing equipment, and are guaranteed to resistant water up to 50m of depth. Seiko Originals have varied levels of depth resistance, which will be stated in the description of each watch.

Can I modify an existing design?

We welcome all ideas! Get in touch via the Contact Us page and we can let you know the possibility and cost of any potential alterations.

What is your returns policy?

Due to the hand-made nature of the Seiko Mods, we offer a 7 day returns period after the watch has been received. The returner must bear the cost of the returns, and the watch must be returned in the same condition as it arrived. We do not offer returns on any bespoke or custom-made watches.

Due to the vintage nature of the Seiko Originals, returns are considered on a case-by-case basis, as vintage items typically have a no returns policy.
