    THIS...is what I've been waiting for! The only thing I see as disappointing is the inability to swap chapter rings. I hope Crystal Times will step up with a line of GMT chapter rings to fit the SKX cases. Thanks!

  • @dvnstone
    @dvnstone Před 2 lety +5

    Hey for what it's worth,,, the Yoon name at the top of the dial adjacent to to 12 position looks so unique. It's a detail in the openworks that really finishes it. Please continue with that style!

  • @briandsouza7854
    @briandsouza7854 Před 2 lety +9

    The font used for Yoon looks bad IMO. My suggestion would be to use a Minimal Sans Serif font and to increase the space between characters as well since it's just 4 letters, currently it looks overstuffed/compressed, there's too much space for 4 letters, use it well. Good luck!

    • @LumeShot

    Just saw this video! Love to see my fellow Korean (and we have the same last name) in the watch game! Making waves out there! Question, I have a new SSK001 and also a new SRPD55. You said in a previous comment that the gmt movement fits the srpd case, but can I actually transfer the “guts” of the SSK into the SRPD case with no modifications? Like the movement, dial, hands and chapter ring from the SSK into the SRPD? If not, what would I need to make it fit the SRPD case? I would love to get the click bezel back. Thanks!

  • @osark2487
    @osark2487 Před rokem +1

    From what I gathered then its possible to use a 007 case with a NH34 movement and a SSK dial. Have it as screw down crown. Take the spring off the bezel and have a bidirectional bezel. Inner chapter ring markings and bezel inserts for the 007 cases, with 24h scales are plentiful on the aftermarket. That way having a GMT SKX 007 with 200m water resistance. My only concern is that extra clearance needed with a NH34 on a 007 case.
    Have I missed something?

    • @YouMystMe
      @YouMystMe Před rokem

      This is exactly what I want to do. It would honestly be the perfect watch for me.
      You could use a double dome to get enough clearance from what I have seen but its very very close. I'd rather wait for some new case designs which im sure will come since this movement is so well recieved.

      cause im planning to add a 4R32 movement to an SKX031, So far everything I’ve noted is:
      - new dial or modify old one
      - pinion height might interfere with the crystal
      - buy a gmt hand (duh)
      the only thing I need to know now is if the movement thickness wont get in the way with the caseback?
