  • @theonetruemango
    @theonetruemango 6 днів тому

    Is there any trick to clipping the stem? I see you using the sandpaper, is the entire stem threaded so it can screw into the crown?

    • @josephlorenzo1461
      @josephlorenzo1461 6 днів тому

      No trick, I don't sand and never had a problem. Once you do your first 2-3 watches it becomes really simple. I don't measure it, just do it by eye, always cut smaller than you think and you won't have any problem. The hardest part is setting hands.

    • @arthur-loh
      @arthur-loh 6 днів тому

      I think the only trick on cutting the stem is always cut lesser than the measurement. so you can slowly work your way up. And yes, i do prefer sanding the stem tip down to make the screwing of crown a little bit easier. but it's entirely optional if you are able to screw the crown on. One benefit of using sand paper is you can prevent accidentally cutting the stem to much on your 2nd or 3rd cut. when you need more precision on the amount of stem to be removed. Hope this helps!

    • @arthur-loh
      @arthur-loh 6 днів тому

    Hi Arthur! Another nice build, congrats! Always like watching your videos. If you care for some constructive criticism: next time building a dateless you might consider the NH38 instead. It's a true no date movement, so there won't be a "ghost" middle crown position (quick set date that you don't see on dial). The price point is similar to NH35. Just saying... ;-)

My rough estimate was somewhere less than 100 USD. Good thing is you only need to buy the tools once and you are set for life! Watch out for seasonal promotions though. You might save more from there! And yes, the parts from AliExpress are surprisingly good, to be honest. The case and bracelet have good weight, and the movement is accurate. Overall, my personal experience with AliExpress has been rather pleasant. Hope this helps!

    • @arthur-loh
      @arthur-loh Місяць тому

      Hi! thanks for the great question. it's hard to tell. it really depends on how versatile the case is. some they allow 0.5mm tolerance in terms of the dial diameter measurements. But i would advise you asking the dial seller directly. perhaps sending the case's link to the dial seller and ask them to verify and confirm it they fit. hope this helps!

    @ChrisRogersTheAngryChef Місяць тому

    Hey, thanks for the tutorial, watched it 3 times before I built my first VK63 Daytona Panda. It's my first time venturing outside of NH movements and my only issue was getting the crown stem back out of the movement and none of my movement holders fit. The entire build took me 45 minutes. I was noticing the lack of quality on the parts I was using. Compared to all the other Rolex and Seiko based mods I made this one feels "tinny" to me. Maybe it's the size of the case and the fixed bezel since I make a lot of Sea Dweller and Samurai mods. In any case, the video is top notch and your accent made it super cool.
