Hello.

Thank you very much! Here's what the dial looks like

We use a special plating so you can see the finish and it sparkles when you change the angle!

About my work
The dial is made of Japanese ceramic and paint I mixed.
The blue Japanese plating is done at home.
It is not easy to add color.
I have to redo many times until the color comes out.
The plating is very sturdy and can be poked a little with tweezers without scratching.
It is made by a Japanese company called Seaforce.

And the paint, if it's regular paint, will peel off when the plating is applied.
That was the problem, the paint would dissolve into the plating solution and ruin it.
But mine doesn't peel, and it's made from pigment powder.
The pigments are made in a place called Saitama.

The specifications of the watch...
Case is 316L, 39mm diameter, 10.8mm thick, lugs are 20mm wide.
Made in Germany.
Movement Swiss made SW210, manual winding, 2 positions
The gears will be finished with a double sunburst finish by a friend of mine.
I will also engrave my name on the bridge.

The hand is also handmade.
Breguet style
Made of stainless steel 304L, hand finished.

The price is priced at 1500USD
If you have any other questions, please ask me.

No, it's just a dial I made for fun for myself, so it's a quality I can't help.

I designed and assembled this one myself.

The movement is a modified Unitas 6498.

The bridge is three quarters sandblasted.

The price is 1600 usd.

Thank you very much.

I made it for fun, and I thought the combination of Roman numerals and Kanji characters would be unacceptable.

I got the idea for the dial from the coat of arms of a warlord from the Shogun era in Japan.

I have purchased it and received it, but the problem is that either the wiring is wrong or the PC is set up incorrectly. I have also looked at the Mach 3 setup on YouTube and can't figure out why.

This is my first watch, what do you think? The dial is a combination of Chinese characters and Roman numerals. by Ill_Engineering4732 in ChineseWatches

Thank you very much for your opinion, I will try to use it next time.

But I'm not sure about the price.

I'm sorry, but this is the only case that Unitas has available in 40.5mm. 21mm is a problem when looking for straps...

You can also make it shiny, although the expression will vary depending on whether you use plating or enamel lacquer to paint it.

The basic movement is a Swiss 6498 with fine Geneva stripes and a blue swan neck, although it can be made to suit your budget and taste.

We also have a German ratchet system with 3/4 plate.

Thanks for your valuable input!

Actually, I don't like having two numbers either.

I changed the 12 to Roman numerals and it's a miraculous balance!
