    I believe the Casio 2784 movement is actually a Miyota 2115. If true, the hand sizes are: Hour 1.20, Min 0.7, Sec 0.17. Good job aligning the second hand with tick marks. Looks spot on! This usually takes me a few times to get it aligned perfectly.

  • @masudashizue777
    @masudashizue777 Před 7 měsíci

    I think it looks good enough with just the cyclops, without enlarging the window. The cyclops lens makes the dial look smaller, and that's a good thing. However, I do like the new hands better than the old.

    I only see the Date in your watch, it takes the attention when you look at it. I have two Duros, I don´t see the Date but the attention goes to the Marlin and the Red Seconds hand. I prefer that.

      of you mean how to choose hands, you find the hand hole sizes by looking up the movement, and then see what is for sale on those sizes.

    Nice video! Does anybody happen to know what size hands fit on this watch? When I'm trying to order hands I can't tell what size to order. Also I ordered a sapphire with magnifier for my Casio Duro and the magnifying lens is slightly off center. It's really annoying. It doesn't look anything as nice as this gentleman's video. Does anyone know where he got his crystal from?

      if you notice, the hands are for watches that are 36-38mm really, which is what I bought them for decades ago. its very small looking in the duro, but if I get bored of them, I will put the original hands back on. Cant change it too often tho, the hands will stretch out. hmmm maybe I should buy a proper big size hands for the duro? Im planning on ordering some parts anyway... hmmmmm
