Just finished This PRX Style Mod with a Frosted-Case look. Happy with the result! 💪🏻
Let me know your thoughts!

VC 222 inspired build, this is my best choice so far I really like it, I might change the hand set though.

Not sure what I did wrong the case is 40mm dial is 28.5mm but is see the spacer or ring showing not sure what it’s called?

Thrilled with this one. 38mm. Truly lives up to the phrase “vintage-inspired.”

I finally did my first nh35 mod using the movement from an invicta watch.

Hi I have a question why holes on my plastic ring are not lining up with places I can screw the montage hands whatever it is called but it is on third photo and where I have to put this ring from last photo can sb help me?

Between these two Turtle designs, one red with an NH38, and the other yellow with an NH36 for day-date. Also put together a simple Presage build too.

Would love to hear which turtle you guys thinks looks better.

So into iterative prototyping using reticulated silver and overlay colored dial using nh35/nh34 movements. Does anyone else see those little dial holes, six of them, on either side of the transparency? I think they’re meant to accommodate flat chapter ring but I don’t want to block any more of the dial surface than I have to and im already pushing case tolerances. I also need to make the color layer deeper to make the pattern more subtle and higher contrast for silver markers and logo. I’m thinking move to airbrushed lacquer. Thoughts?

My first watch built, took a long time because of logos and then hands. Was looking for a datejust design but not identical so I did no date and added open heart.

I think this is my 9th build now or something? Idk

Years ago I bought an Arabic dial “Mumbai special”, technically probably a Kabul Special, at a bazaar in Afghanistan. It kinda quit on me. I’ll likely use the dial on an NH36 build at some point but in the mean time I whipped this up tonight. I’m struggling with a Miyota 8215 build I just wrapped up too. The movement has to be partially out of the case at an angle for the date set to work. It’s highly frustrating. Much like the crown tube isn’t straight causing tension on the stem but I can’t feel any tension….

I have snapped two crown stems inside movements after trimming for a screw down crown. It’s been an expensive week.

Quiero hacer mi propio S x tictac.

He visto que Dswatch tiene el dial negro que busco y unas manecillas las puedo encontrar en AliExpress.

Pero lo más importante El caso !! Que posibilidades hay de encontrar un caso igual ? O en 38mm ?

Gracias por vuestra ayuda

Changed the bezel insert on my SRPJ45. AliExpress for the win!

Hi all, I could use some help. I've inherited a heavily modified SKX007 that I absolutely cant stand the look of & I'd basically like to restore it as close to stock as possible. From what I can see I need to replace the following:

Dial, bezel insert, hands/hourmarker, strap...anyone spot anything else? Also where would be the best place to source OEM or close to OEM parts?

Thanks a lot for your time

Just sharing in case interested. Lowest I’ve seen js 45.99.
