How To Swap A Watch Crystal 101
Another how-to video for you guys. This time we are focusing on swapping, or installing, a watch crystal. You need a crystal press for this operation, and maybe an extra crystal gasket wouldn't hurt, just in case. Aside from that, it is relatively straightforward. The most important thing is to keep the crystal level when installing.

Do You Own A Square Watch?
zhlédnutí 379Před 9 hodinami
I have never owned a square watch, have you? I hope you appreciate my attempt at high-brow humour! I have been laughing at myself for days over this one. Like it or not, it did turn out to be a very good-looking watch. I have never made a square watch so I wasn't sure what to expect. The case is a much more usable size than I assumed it would be. Overall I can't complain too much. The dial is a...

Titanium Watch Build!
zhlédnutí 816Před 14 dny
Another amazing titanium build with a full lume dial. If I'm being honest, titanium is not for me. I love the idea, and I really love the look, but my brain has been hardwired into thinking that the weight of an item has something to do with its value. These watches look amazing, but the light weight throws me off a little. That's my problem lol. GO FUND ME! gofund.me/3a691a32 Higher-grade memb...

A while back I made the SPB301 and also the SPB299. I always wondered what the 299 dial would look like in the Willard case so here we are!

Limited to only 1000 pieces, I was lucky enough to get my hands on one of the Seiko "Sabo" SRPH05 cases and dials. Not a perfect match for the OEM version, but that's not what we are going for.

Swiss Watch Build: INSANE LUME!
zhlédnutí 529Před měsícem
This Swiss watch build looks so damn good, and the lume on this dial is crazy. It isn't surprising that the lume on the hands struggles to keep up. Now, except maybe for the bezel insert, the date window alignment, and trim the stem properly, and..... lol. I'm glad I love the process. One of these times it will be perfect.

Unboxing another different logo style that I'm trying out. I want this one for my Swiss build. I had to try out Dialmaker after hearing a lot about them. So far so good.

Better Looking Than Expected!

Part 2 in the first Namokimods Lootbox build series. This time I use the remaining parts provided by Namokimods, added to an already complete movement, dial, and hands from another build. This has been an amazing opportunity to try parts I don't think I would have had the chance to unless someone ordered a build with them. Never judge a book, or watch part, at first glance. Thank you Namokimods...

Maybe I missed it, but what was the reason that you couldn't use the angled bezel insert?
The black should stand out more day and night? I would think a full lume dial and hands would be one giant green lume blob in the dark?
Please correct me if I'm wrong; I thought the chapter ring went in before the crystal gasket.
It doesn't matter, it will slide past the crystal gasket no problem
That is f@#$kn sexy ad broz probably one of my favourites you've done red is my favourite colour
Thank you sir!
Black samurai hands with lume like on orange monster would have looked cool
I agree!
Super nice ! That’s awesome 👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Very cool, it's hip to be square 👍
Huey knew what was up! Now I need a new drug!
Love seeeing that handsome mug in the videos JP. Great video bro keep em coming.
I think Mrs. Santana needs to check your prescriptions! For your glasses and your meds! 😜😂 Thanks brother, the love is needed right now 🙏
Finger cots come in lots of sizes. Ebay is you friend....
I knew it!
Bezel insert is squint. Need to buy stem grease....
Been on the list for a while😂
Just buy some proper stem grease. 🤔
It's on the list!😉
You have to drop the part where you say stuff like "you will never dive that deep" as you can still achieve momentary pressure spikes well above 6ATM doing non diving things like falling when waterskiing, high diving, or pressure washing. My rule of thumb if the watch costs a bit is: 5ATM rating = Can not even shower with it, 10ATM = will survive if you get caught in a rainstorm, 20ATM = Good for swimming and snorkeling, 30ATM= all you need as a beginning diver, but divers dont use mechanical watches anymore, anything above 30ATM is just for showing off to your 12 year old buddies and technical demonstrations.
I've read articles on both sides of the argument which both sound logical.
What about EMP wonder if they’d survive or do I need a Rolex milgauss
😂😂
Bruh, get a mic. Sound quality on intro sucks. Hmm Chinese quality at its best lol.
It was a Technical difficulties kinda day lol
First off, thanks for the video. I did find it helpful. Second, this took me two hours to SUCCESSFULLY complete. The most sensitive thing ever. The parts weigh 10 atoms each and it's near impossible to move the top metal sheet into position without violently bumping the bottom sheet that has to absolutely be still so the tooth stays in place. OMG what a good time though...
I am happy it helped! It's a "don't sneeze'" kind of project for sure!
Words can't express how much I appreciate the jobs you have done for me in building my watches.. I appreciate your craftsmanship and dedication to being one of the best watch moder in the business... You always go beyond and above the job! I just wanted to say" THANKYOU", brother, for another beautiful watch. Until the next time, have a wonderful day.
I'm in love with SRPK35.
I love them all lol
Well done 👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!
i need one .....
These are inexpensive and work great. The machines that test up to 20atm are very expensive
Very nice build! See if I can't get better parts to lumen up like that!!! Try to link my 2nd attempt at building a watch myself. Nope can't post pics it seems.
Would be nice if they allowed pics in the comments, I would love to see
Did your case come with a white ring inside? If so did you use it?!
Yes and yes. It keeps the movement secure in the case
@@dadmodswatches nice! How did yours go in? Before or after movement?
@@6661Spicer6661 If I remember right, after
Like a link to the dial. The one above doesn't have anything listed for sale
Link in the description, they might be sold out
Looks really good. I'm not a red watch person, but as one that also makes watches, I appreciate the watch. Very nice!
Thank you!
Can we get some links to the dial and bezel insert sources ? Great videos!
@wannabe_sailor_777smith6 dial is fake, it's fraud to use it or for him to link it here
I would like a link as well
Links in the description
Red sunburst dials are amazing. They remind me of blood Best dials for me.
You're not allergic to garlic, are you? 😬😂
Hi dad. What If been doing is cut the stem and check movement to case first.
Great idea!
There are a few nice watches with red dials on the market. Like my Spinnaker Fleuss Oxblood Red. The watch you "created" does not really suit my taste. Which is okay because we all are different. But using a fake Seiko dial is a no go for me.
Yes, I do mods as well, but never used a branded dial / case / bracelet.
You know it's fraud to use a seiko branded dial thst wasn't made by seiko right?
Not if marketed as a Homage watch
@aaronmcneal1698 false. If it is branded it is not an homage. It's fake
It's only fraud if I attempt to convince people it's a real dial. I readily admit that it is an aftermarket recreation
@dadmodswatches it's illegal that's the point. It says seiko and seiko didn't produce it. Fraud.
@@aaronmcneal1698 Ahh no. So according to you I can build a fake Rolex dial and all and as long as I call it a homage and market it as such its not a fake. You don't even know what the definition of homage. So you clearly are wrong. Maybe look about the definition of Homage before you make such an uneducated statement. GTFO.
Amazing mod as usual my friend 🤓
Thank you 👍
Side note If you are changing the battery on any Ronda movements, make sure you have a loupe or some form of magnifying. Also make sure your screw driver is super sharp
Agreed! A loupe is needed for my old eyes, and I always keep my tools sharp. Great advise Space!
I have the 3 prong from a Amazon tool kit. My neighbor has me change a few batteries
It works great, just not my favourite
Wow, someone has gorgeous tastes 😊
He has amazing taste!
That watch is sharp! I just bought a red Orient and I should have bought this!
There is always a next watch lol
What dial is that on the nh38 watch? And do you know where I could purchase one?
This is a handmade Samurai dial I purchased from a guy on Facebook, Leszek Guilloche
@@dadmodswatches ok thank you for the help💯
It looks super cool. I would totally be doing this if not for the fact that the color on the dial does not match the color on the hands or the bezel insert. Maybe if they were closer in color but it is so far off. I am surprised Namoki let this happen.
I wonder if it was intentional or not.
Looks really hard
Only the first time lol
@@dadmodswatches well I’m gonna give it a go mate. Gonna replace the date wheel and the hands, plus a glass back case… wish me luck.
@@The_Invisible_Man You got this!
I have a similar case/movment.. the chono needle came off. Ive already removed the Crown and plastic ring.. but the dial is fixed to the other side of the movement. how do i pull the vk63a mvmt/dial out of the Case with the Pushers in place.. I tried turning the pushers to see of they are screwed on but nothing seems to be working? Or is there a way of Popping out the crystal from the outside? Any info will be greatly appreciated.
Try removing the dial and movement at a steep angle from the opposite side of the case as the pushers. When putting it back, the pusher side goes in first. I hope this helps!
Thank you a lot, you save me a lot of time and this is great!
Glad it helped!
Would be nice if you would put a reference to some of the tools you use, would be very helpful ....
I will see if I can find some links to add to the description
NEWBEE QUESTION: I just replaced a battery on a snap on/off back. All good. But at least with both thumbs pressing, I cant get it snapped back on. I don't want to put too much pressure because of the crystal. Any tips? Thanks.
Some can be very tight to put back on. You can try and find something close to the same diameter as the case-back and push it down evenly. Some case-backs also have a small notch to line up. Worst scenario, a watch shop shouldn't charge you anything.
Really nice
Thank you! Cheers!
You don't like the ball?
I haven't tried one but I don't see it working very well on a tight case back. I could be wrong
Hi jp, i have emailed you about this one mate 🙂 very interested
I shall respond ASAP
Cheers bud
Cheers to you too!
Good one 👍 dad.
Glad you enjoyed
How come you didnt know?🤔
