This time I got the chrono hand to set correctly but now when I use the chrono buttons the hour hand shifts. LOL, one lesson at a time I guess.
All in, I still like this build and how the band makes the watch "pop".
I snapped the winding stem and need to extract it this is my second movement I have dicked but I’m pretty sure I can recover this one any ideas?
Another diver GMT build, however this time with an OEM SBDC127/SPB187J1 dial. Everything else is aftermarket.
My second build. Love how this came out as well. Speedmaster Homage. All parts from Aliexpress. VK63 movement.
Not my favorite mod (smaller mods are more comfortable) but very near and dear to my heart as it reminds me of a watch my grandfather had when I was a child. It was definitely not a gmt so the first photo is the design I was going for, second is my initial mod, and third is my final after swapping the nh35 to a spare 34. I think if I had gone with a 12 hour bezel I could have stayed on the 35. Anywho, if you are starting, don’t throw any parts out, soon enough you’ll have the confidence to take a build apart without sweating putting the seconds hand back on. Happy modding!!
I have no idea where to find this. Can someone help me with what it’s called or where to get it?
happy with this build except band has a slight wiggle and gap. Also the fact it says "automatic" when it's a quartz VK
Has anyone else had luck with these moonswatch straps and the speedmaster cases?
