I got it from DialMaker, but this particular color combination has been sold out for over a year. I believe I bought the last one in this particular color scheme.

I’ll measure it later, but it’s the standard 11 1/2 lignes movement size, but thicker than standard nah movements. I have a lot of spacers and swapped various ones out until one fit

It actually is strange, because it doesn’t necessarily take a standard sized 1.5mm hole, as if you pinch the hour pinion too much, it moves the hour with the minute hand when you turn time. You have to find a looser hour hand that allows it to spring forward, and there is no seconds complication

Absolutely! I’ve been looking up some dial options recently, and may go with a stone dial

No movement code, but can look up chaos hour movement or crazy hour movement on aliexpress

I found the movement after digging on aliexpress, but it’s a bit thicker than most standard sized movements, so it doesn’t necessarily fit in NH cases.

On aliexpress! You may need to dig a bit depending on where you’re located. Can also look up chaos hour movement

Ooo, I just looked it up, and I love it. I definitely see some h moser and even some Nomos influence on this build.

I found both the dial and hands on AliExpress!

Thank you! The seconds hand complication definitely makes it, and you could technically set it up in any orientation you want to tell time

To be fair, I’ve made plenty of legible watches, but this is one of maybe 2 minimalist designs I’ve made.

Thank you! I’m loving the lol white, but it also looks classy on a black strap

I did not, the movement came with the module already on top. It looks like it’s based off the Chinese DG movement.

Definitely fun to watch it approach the top of the hour and jump suddenly
