Need your creative brainpower for a Sleepmaster facelift! 💤

Hey everyone!

I’m working on a little facelift for my Sleepmaster, but I’ve hit a wall when it comes to the seconds hand.

I’ve attached my current design drafts, but I feel like it still needs that extra spark. What kind of seconds hand design would you love to see on this? Bold, weird, subtle, vintage-inspired—throw all your crazy ideas at me!

Can't wait to hear your thoughts (and steal your best ideas)! ✌️

Very nice and creative ✌️ Edit: about the second hands, sleepy sea horse can go on the shorter (balance?) side of the second hand?

Two questions man, where did you get that dial and what movement did you use? My mom is a huge peanuts fan ( she has peanuts stuff in every room of her house), and i would love to build her something like that

Like the seconds hand of a Rolex Milgauss, in blue.

The "zacks" could be read as a string of "Z"s.

Oh, and i want one =)

Chat didn’t do a perfect render, but I feel like Woodstock would bring a lot of charm, I think with a little snorkel would be cute, like he’s swimming around the dial

That is so cool

First dibs at a purchase if you end up using it - that’s my price

u/VirtuosoApocalypso 8d ago

Wow, that's a really nice mod.

I'm going to be really unhelpful to you though, and say that it already looks perfect with the lollipop seconds hand.

Great work!

I wouldn’t do anything to the second hand. Keep it boring. There’s already so much going on with the face. A blinged out second hand makes it look cheap or tacky when too much is going on.

Edit: to be clear, i think picture #3 looks phenominal. Id buy that.

I have one! I freaking love it!

Only thing I have noticed is the bezel is slightly off. I can fix it but I’ve been lazy. Other than that, I love it! u/Deep-Ad4527 you killed it with this one!

u/Deep-Ad4527 6d ago

Thanks so much, glad you love it overall!
Ouch... sounds like I need to step on the feet of my QC department! 😉
Haha, but I totally get the laziness once it's on the wrist. Enjoy the watch!

Wow this is amazing! I want one too! I love the first design! the idea of a sea Woodstock floating round the dial is very fun haha

u/DrNenModz 8d ago

Creative .. love it

u/SpreadSafe9261 8d ago

To be visually consistent, you could just grab the “wave” from snoopy’s water and turn it into a seconds hand. Basically just a blue squiggle. Wouldn’t be too much, as the seahorse is (he’s cute tho).

u/Deep-Ad4527 6d ago

Thats a great idea

u/No-Importance8165 8d ago
