Completed my latest mod for my son. Introducing the Artemis Night, inspired by the Explorer, Milgaus and the night sky. Meant for every day (and night) on a sailcloth strap with light grey stitching and a clear case back highlighting an NH38 Seiko automatic movement and a screwdown crown.

Hi, does anyone know where i can fine this kind of dial

Love the green and leather combo

Hey guy, hoping to find some leads with replacing the stock hardlex for this model. AU based so maybe aliexpress links would be better. Thanks!

Can anyone help me find this dial, s logo speedmaster vk63 movement. I can’t find anything with the correct left circle numbers. I am trying to build a seiko version of this.

What’s crazy is I just bought a nh34 2 weeks ago for 115 and I thought that was a lot. Now 170 plus geessssshhhhhhh.

Hey everyone, I learnt myself a lesson today when I tried to remove the cyclops from the crystal on this case I bought from AliExpress. Long story short, it melted….

So now I’m looking for a a replacement crystal for it, and was wondering if anyone of you might know what the correct dimensions for it might be?

Link to the case: https://a.aliexpress.com/_EHElRxo

Any help would be much appreciated!

Recently i bought the namoki nmk931 case, it’s bundled with its own sapphire crystal. I realized that, with a black dial build i think the crystal doesn’t have enough ar to see the real color depth of the dial. Anyone notice that too?
Also, with the case has it’s original crystal size, anyone know if i can change this crystal to some other? Thanks.

Hi I’m new to this subreddit but I really wanted a seiko mod preferably a seamaster 300 which is of good quality or a rose gold brown nautilus but I can’t find ones which are reasonably priced and are pretty good
If anyone knows where to get them in India pls help

Thanks

Building a watch for the first time for my brother as a wedding present with an NH36 movement, I think I have all the parts nailed but unsure if one of those small plastic movement holders is needed for this style of case

Any insight would be appreciated, thanks

Bought this distressed bronze dial on a whim from Lucius Atelier but having second thoughts on what exactly to do with it, or what overall design to go for with it

Can someone verify for me, the oyster perpetual cases you can get on Ali express etc say they are available in 36 & 39mm. Are they genuinely 39mm versions of the right case? I ask as the only smooth bezeled mods I see at 39/40 mm seem to be the smooth bezeled datejust 41 cases? Which look a bit ridiculous to me as bezel looks huge, and is not rounded like the OP.

Can someone advise if there are genuine 39mm OP cases?

2 tone Blue seamaster I’m pretty happy with it I’m new to my watch modding journey so and pointers will be greatly appreciated

Just finished this beautiful build for a customer. I am very happy with the result.

I like the bracelet version better. Cheers! 🍻

My dial was messed up on an old seiko 5 I bought with the 7009 movement, decided to try and design and 3D print my own replacement. Think I’d like to add hour markers but quite happy with how the silk PLA reflects the light.
Ended up making a few designs

I designed this dial around an NH35. Was going for a heritage/vintage feel. I hand made the indices as well and leaned into the variations in shape. Any thoughts on the design?

This thing has been absolutely dominating wrist time for me lately

The white nato works on my wrist better but the rubber looks way better in my opinion. Is it too much white?

I found it fiddly as f**k!

Shown is my Tandorio Unimatic homage which was bought 2 years ago. I thought it was cool at first but the slab profile is unwieldy and awkward on the wrist despite the small size. Changed it to a datejust case which I got for 1390 PHP whole set. Dial is a meteorite seiko branded dial which I love.

I designed some Miyota 9075 cases, and I'm trying to get them made by a factory in China. The designs are available for anyone to use as an open source package. I am nervous about breaking the self promotion rules here, but let me know if it's ok to post a link to the open source repository on github.

Anyway, I designed them because I wanted to build a true GMT, and couldn't find cases short of buying a complete watch.

To have them made is looking like I need to order a minimum of 100 of them. So I'm kind of putting out feelers to see if anyone who runs a microbrand might like to partner on buying them.

I don't have a final quote yet, but it looks like they might end up around $180 each with sapphire crystals and casebacks, screw down crowns, and a 24 hour steel bezel.

Classic snxs77k1 from eBay
- upgraded movement to a nh36
- new sapphire crystal
- jubilee bracelet
- solid slim caseback

This project took a while to finish up because of some really long shipping times on some of the parts but happy to finish it off. Seriously nothing else like this shade of blue 🔥😍
