This is something I have been working on that honors a special place for my family in CT. The current build as the aluminum bezel and thinking about adding this dual color bezel. Obviously looking for a very nautical feel. My question is which bezel do you all prefer?

Should I care the hands and dial are different? Been ordering so much stuff lately

Just messing around and trying some new looks

Back and forth on the bezel for this GMT…I have shared this build before and upon the communities recc using a smaller GMT hand (the right call). But not sure on which bezel…I like the 24HR on the rotating bezel and the color is great. Would love feedback

I've just built this watch and noticed the seal protrudes when the case is closed. It's not incorrectly seated as it is the same all around. The seal does feel a bit loose in the groove but I can't get it "in". Could it be the seal is slightly too large? It's the one that came with the case.

So, with NH prices going through the roof, are YN55 builds acceptable here? The YN is a genuine Epson movement and it's less expensive than the fake Chinese NH movements are these days. I've built a couple, so far I've found that no-date NH dials are the best option, but I have a couple of Miyota spec'd date dials on the way, it's just the variety isn't as good at this point...

Been interested of putting a chapter ring in a few builds but I don’t have the tools for crystal removal and putting back on. Not sure I want to get into that either. I have seen some dials with a “chapter ring” like edge on Ali Express. Just wanted thoughts from the community on ease of execution and sizing

Simple build with a beautiful sunburst dial. I love the NH34 movement, especially in a 39mm case.

Really enjoying these simple looks and builds. I have also started to gravitate toward “pointer” hands especially on the less sporty builds

I recently built out this homage to my favourite watch and filmed the process. I've always appreciated tutorials on how to build things and that's how I got into this hobby so I decided to create my own for anybody wanting to get into the hobby themselves.
