The Great Wave off Kanagawa (神奈川沖浪裏, Kanagawa-oki nami ura) is an iconic woodblock print by Katsushika Hokusai (葛飾北斎), circa 1829 to 1833 in the late Edo period. To date, this remains as Hokusai's most famous piece of work and has been one of the most recognisable works of Japanese Art in the world.
Given the rich history and origin of Hokusai and SEIKO, this is a perfectly paired appreciation of art and horology.

Original Woodblock Print - The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Katsushika Hokusai
Every single element of this modded Seiko 5 make for a truly special, interesting and most beautiful wristwatch!
The white bezel with the marine-ish blue strap (which is also extremely comfy) complement this amazing dial to near perfection.
The hour marks & GS hands add a nice flair without being overbearing.
The dial came out even better than expected, it has a slight grainy texture, which gives it a nice look when looked upon.
The lume is probably one of the feature that surprised me the most... It looks absolutely fantastic.
Communication was great and shipping was fast.
On the other hand, the watch came with some scratches, on the case between the two front lugs, and on the bezel inserts... Nothing too dramatic as they're not that visible... But it's a bit of a bummer nonetheless.
I'm overall very pleased with the watch, it received many praises from watch enthusiasts and others =)
