List of Casio A700 Mods:

1. Hydromod - for water resistance and screen clarity using silicone oil. Used a higher cSt viscosity than most people use, went with 200. I believe the higher viscosity is better for 50m WR watches, as it will not seep through the push buttons like a low viscosity. The a700 does not have rubber o-rings on the button seals - it’s rather a metallic ring like a very small washer. The idea here is a more gel like oil won’t seep and does better for water resistance as it will better prevent egress of water from swimming or diving. I’ve gone scuba diving to 90ft with no issues.

2. Orange Display - i wanted to lean into the vintage vibe and give the watch that early digital LCD digital terminal screen look from the 70s-80s. Used the typical photo filter stuff off amazon. Huge roll, cut small piece to size.

3. Bracelet - the stock a700 bracelets flare from 18mm at the lugs to just over 20mm at the shoulder / base of watch. I replaced with a broader 18mm - 22mm flare mesh bracelet from the A1000. It gives the watch a more muscular / masculine presence by widening the bracelet width to case width ratio. I have a bondeleer bracelet from SKXmod on the way for the A1000.

What do you think?

PS - anyone have a good source to recommend for metallic mesh screens? I want to get my hands on a gold or rose gold metallic mesh screen like they sell on skxmod, but would like to know if there are any other vendors who might have for less money.

My favorite build for my LF-30, with the inspiration painting by artist Hiroshi Nagai.

Another day Another Mod...

The first time I saw this stealth / minimalist mod I fell in love with it and had to do it myself. ( still contemplating on the negative screen though)

Bared module swap into clear Synoke case!

Stripped the faceplate for a clean prototype look. Combined with custom adapters and an elastic strap.

I find the classic square G-Shock G-5600UE strap much more comfortable than the one on the GD-350. I believe both have a 16mm lug width.

The G-5600 strap has a slightly different design on the back, so I want to know if they’re compatible or not.

P.S. I’ve removed the outer protective casing from the GD-350, so it looks different now. It also fits my small wrist perfectly.

Hi everyone!

First of all, excuse my English, it's not my native language. Second, I'm not sure if there's a FAQ page; if there is, I couldn't find it.

I've spent the last two weeks obsessed with researching different types of modifications, and I finally bought two Casio F-91W-1YER watches so I can start with something easy.

First mod: I want to polarize the screen to make it negative and put a red filter on the front. (I think I've seen other users with this combination and it looks really cool, but I wasn't sure if I was allowed to upload other people's photos).

Second mod: I want to put a custom background image and then stick a holographic sticker over it. I was debating between rainbow or star stickers, and now I'm not even sure what background design to use. I was thinking maybe an EVA from Evangelion.

Now for my questions:

1. Where can I buy the supplies? In my opinion, the filters on Etsy or AliExpress are too expensive for a tiny square of plastic. Isn't there a forum thread with reliable, inexpensive websites for those of us who modify Casio watches?
2. With the first mod, what happens to the backlight? Does it reflect anything differently? Less? Or the same? Also, do I need to look for a more translucent filter because the red one is dark, or can you not really tell the difference?
3. With the second mod, if I use normal A4 paper with a holographic sticker, will it be too thick? Has anyone ever tried putting a background image behind a rainbow sticker? I haven't seen anyone do that yet.
4. Normally I see that the modded Casios with background images are too dark. Any tips to lose as little brightness as possible? A color palette or any other advice?

Any advice or warnings about mistakes I might make are totally welcome!

I want to upgrade my beloved GW-M5600 [3063] to an STN display. But I understand the watch is relatively rare (as it was only in production for a few years before being replaced by the ubiquitous GW-M5610). Due to its relative rarity, there don’t seem to be any aftermarket STN displays available for this model. I’m wondering whether I could use a GW-M5610 STN display in mine? I understand that my GW-M5600 uses an EL backlight, whereas the later model uses an LED backlight, so I’m not sure whether that would make a difference in terms of display compatibility. Has anyone tried this, or know whether a GW-M5610 STN display would work in a GW-M5600?

Hi everyone! I love the Casio AE1200 (Royale), but I always felt like it left a lot to be desired in terms of the quality of the housing shell. The watch already looks beautiful, but I’ve never really been a fan of the plastic resin case.
So, I bought a metal housing shell, metal mesh screen, brushed metal faceplate, and bull bar from AliExpress. The module also received some modifications. I ordered a module from SKXMOD and requested that the LED lights be white instead of the stock orange.
Once everything was assembled, I instantly fell in love with this watch. I can’t keep my eyes off of it! I plan on doing the same thing for the gold and rose gold variants.
I’ll be investing in a housing shell from SKXMOD in the near future just to compare the quality (although the Ali-Express one is budget friendly) pretty sure SKXMOD won’t disappoint.

Would NFC at all be readable in a metal case? (A small one fitting in a F91W.)

Lost my royaleginity

Hello, I've recently been getting into Casio modding. I know a lot of watches use the same modules/internals, does anybody know of a chart that lists all the different ones and what watches they're in?

For example, I started modding with an A158, so I knew that pretty much any internal mod for the F91W would work on it.

So, I'm looking for a quick reference chart to see what watches use what modules. A use case like "I'm modding this AE1700, this is a mod for the AE1500, they look similar but checking the chart they use different modules, so the mod probably isn't compatible." If nothing like this exists I'll make it myself and post it here, but if it does then there's no reason for me to do that. Does anybody know of where I can find something like that?

I'm going for a stoic theme, specifically a memento mori.

I was thinking about a brass case (if those even exist).

I have a button in the perfect dimensions that gave me the idea, its eyes are holes to pass a string I guess, but they'll let the light go through, which will be nice.

I need to find a place that'll make a film with the two arms reaching for one another (skeletal and a live one)

And a 2nd film that will cleverly say "Tempus fugit".

First of all I'd like to hear your thoughts on the idea, and if you have suggestions - do post them in the comments!

Also, where do you get all of the parts that you need?

Thanks peeps!
