How u get the seiko watch dial?
Could you also share the link where we can get custom dial decals made?
Do you regulate your watches that you sell at all, or is it sort of “what the factory sends out is what you get” type of deal?
You mentioned it’s a true gmt movement. It’s not, it’s a callers gmt. A true GMT has the local hour hand that sets independently. The Miyota 9075 is a true GMT movement, the NH34 is not.
How do you know if you cut the stem too short or too long? This is my second mod and both seem to be cut right (crown seats well into the case, and moves without issue) but the second had will stop moving, the. I tap the crystal and it starts moving again. I’ve read that the second hand might be touching the inside of the crystal and to shave down the inner ring of the caseback. Any advice?
If the crown stem is too long the crown wont screw all the way down to the case, if its too short you wont be able to properly engage each position with the crown. Sounds like your second hand may be bent to high up and touching the crystal. No need to shave anything down as that will make the movement loose in the case, just bend the second hand down a little and test
I want to buy this watch
There's a link in the description to my website, where you can purchase this watch :)
Great build as usual mate, I think maybe a little too much bling for me though. Wrapped in your two tone though with the "J" style bracelet. Love the rootbeer insert.
Hi Jason. Where did you get the base unit for the LH0105-4 tool? The one that it came with is oddly shaped and brass in color. I am talking about the one you show on 7:00 of this video. Thanks.
I purchased one of those LH0105-4 hand setting tools from AliExpress. I noticed that you have a round silver colored base unit that seems to fit with this unit and your movements. The one it comes with is brass and weirdly shaped. Do you mind sharing what base unit you have that works with this tool and where you got it? Thanks.
It's from Lucius atelier but I'm not the biggest fan of it to be honest. Im on the hunt for a replacement
Good show mate!
Thanks mate :)
If you just use your tweezers to gently bend the extra dial feet back and forth a couple times, they will break off flush with the back of the dial, instead of leaving a sharp little stump behind. Also, just curious about your reasoning behind spending time cleaning the outside of the crystal before installing the movement when you can clean that any time after the watch is assembled.
In my experience I have found that the dial feet will rarely break flush off on the dial. Its important to clean the topside of the crystal because you need to make sure the bottom of the crystal is clean before installing the movement/dial, and it is impossible to tell if the bottom of the crystal is clean if the top of the crystal is dirty. Hope that makes sense
oh nice watch i like it 👍
@@tonyka2422 cheers!
I love your channel . Very informative . I also like your taste in watches . Thanks for teaching us all this ! You've inspired me to attempt to build a watch or 2 .
Thanks! You're very welcome🙂
Removing the date wheel was so nerve racking lol. Lost 2 of the screws in the process but managed to make it work with just two. Thanks for the video
Haha atleast you were still able to make it work with just 2 screws😅
You putting the watch glass side down on a marble work top really made my teeth itch. Please a soft mat or cloth or something.
Haha no chance of it getting scratched as the marble is softer than the crystal
cool watch, can the bracelet accomodate tiny wrists say like 6"-6.25"?
Cheers! Yeah, if you remove all the links and adjust the clasp it should work fine!
Can anyone point me in the right direction where is a decent priced parts company to build my own watch
@danielmiller8114 Ive linked all the parts in the description 🙂
@ thanks buddy
Im ready to build my own and if get good at it, can't think of nicer Christmas gifts to make for my kids. Each personally made by Dad!
Yeah! They make for great gifts!
sweet video, BTW, where did you get that thin movement holder ? All of the NH holders I have won't fit the bases for my hand press tool like yours. Thanks in advance
Thanks! The movement holder is from lucius atelier🙂
Really looks cool. Maybe I’ll try it myself. Thanks for your help.
You're welcome🙂
If the case specifies it fits the NH36 & NH35, can you always just use the NH38? Are they the same size?
Yep!
great one 👍 which case is that, can you send me a link please? what is the total height of finished build?
this looks so good
Thank🙌
I really enjoy watching these builds. Thanks. After watching I bought parts to build a GMT and I'm having issues with mount the hands. The dial I have has raised indices and the GMT hand fouls on them. So I have to play around with all the hands and they end up strange angles for clearance. Any advice?
Thanks! You may need to bend the GMT hand up a little to clear the indices. Because the hour hand is significantly shorter you should be able to keep it relatively straight without it hitting the GMT hand
Awesome build. I’ve made a handful of a very similar design for some friends that I work with. Question on the NH35 date wheel removal. If I’m building a no date watch, I typically go with an NH38 (as you said in the video). When you remove the date wheel and white gear as you showed, does it remove the first click when pulling out the crown? Or is there still a “ghost” position? I really enjoy your builds. Great editing. Solid voice over. All around good stuff.
Thanks mate, really appreciate it! Once you remove the date wheel and gear there is no clicking or ghost position where there normally would be when changing the date :)
I’m new to watchmaking but when you pull out the crown, the positions are controlled by the setting lever. So in my mind when you pull out the crown you would still have two positions to get to the time setting mode. By just removing the date wheel doesn’t eliminate the middle position which would be the date setting position. So there will still be three positions when pulling out the crown, the winding position, the date setting position, and the time setting position. Unless I am totally wrong…😮 Otherwise, nice build and nice watch.
@@jbwatchmodsgood to know. I will definitely try that out on my next no date build. Cheers.
@@fsobothat was kind of my thought as well… I’m not nearly as familiar with the inner workings, but I’m curious if the removal of the little while gear somehow impacts the date setting vs time setting position. Either way. I’m going to give it a go and see what happens.
@@TonyGenerali did u find out if there was a ghost position (as the original commenter mentioned i thought to remove the ghost position an nh38 jumper would need to be swapped in?) (similar to the eta 2824 using the 2801 jumper to solve the same problem)
Where do you get your custom dials if you don’t mind me asking?
Ive got a contact who does this for me, but there are sellers on Aliexpress that offer this service.
@ awesome thanks
I just finished this build and love it! Question is where did you get that hand set? The one linked and all the ones I could find were like the original Yacht Master, yet the one you show in video has white counter weight and full blue color. I like the look of it and think it sets it apart from a Yacht Master.
Mate, it’s highly kind of you to provide the link to all of your parts and also the build techniques. Because of you, I have successfully built about a dozen watches now using the NH 35 movements.
Thats awesome to hear. My pleasure mate🙂
Where did u get the crown and what was the size?
The crown comes with the case :)
How do you get your brand imprinted on the face?
Ive got a contact who does this for me, but there are sellers on Aliexpress that offer this service.
😂 spent holidays pulling city slickers with their ‘4x4’s’ outta the sand.
😂😂 This city slicker happened to be my brother lol
@ 😂🤣😂🤣 show him the post..!
How do you get your own logo on it?
Ive got a contact who does this for me, but there are sellers on aliexpress that offer this service
A really impressive build it looks great, I've just finished my third build a Flieger and I'm already looking forward to the fourth, I'd love to see you build a day/date something like the Hamilton H64455523
Thanks mate! Im working on doing some more day dates!
noice
Thanks!
Beautiful🔝🔝🔝
Thank you! Cheers!
Very good video, could you post the Aliexpress link to customize the dial logo? Thanks
Thanks! Ive got a contact who does this for me (not on aliexpress)
I bought one that looks exactly the same but I cant open it for the life of me. The pins you push in to change the bracelet are stuck and I dont know what to do
Sometimes they can requires a decent amount of force. Just make sure you are pushing it the correct direction, there should be arrows on the bracelet
Is the link on that case and straps is for nh34?
Yep🙂
I noticed that you were filing the cut off dial feet nearly overtop your exposed movement. Is that recommended?
I notice that the dial in AliExpress doesn't include the "Seiko" on the dial. Did you add a decal, and if so, where do you find them?
If it says "s logo" or something similar in the listing, it will come with the seiko logo
Excellent work and very very beautiful! Thank you.
Thanks🙂
If i order the dial from your link in the description, does it come saying SEIKO ?
If it says "s logo" or something similar it will come with the seiko logo
Thank you for the video, It helped me a lot in building my first mod which makes my wife ask for her one 😅 I want to ask, if I need to build a 36 watch not 40, are all mentioned items the same except the case? or I need another size for the dail and machine.
No worries :) All parts will be the same except for the case itself
No one is going to point out the misspelled thumbnail?
You've never heard of the royak oak!?😅😅
😂😂😂 thanks for the video. I’m building confidence to do my first build and you helped me a lot.
Great build it looks amazing. The link to the dial does not work would you be able to fix it please?
Thanks! link updated :)
Great build. I built this same watch using AliEx parts but the seconds hand I got is the wrong color blue and is barely visible. Yours is much better. Which part is it? When I click your link for the hands I see like one of 50+ choices, can you tell me which one is the right light blue for an NH35? Thanks!
This watch case is the most comfortable case i ever had.
It is a very comfy watch to wear!
Got all the stuff I need to build it ended up cutting the wrong pin now the dial looks tilled.
does the dial come saying SEIKO ?
@@MiguelSeverino-pi4inThe one I purchased came with a seiko logo.
Hello, you know what is the lug to lug of that case, nice watch
Lug tu lug is 48mm :)
Sir I saw bubbles coming from the crystal.
1 or 2 bubbles is normal. If there was a leak there would be a constant flow of bubbles
