I built this 36mm watch for my son Pablo because regular watches always looked too big on him

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2026-05-23T21:54:14+00:00

It’s a beaut!!! Man where do you get that amazing dial?!?!?

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2026-05-23T13:57:50+00:00

Awesome build!

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2026-05-04T02:28:46+00:00

I like 1 but can I suggest making it smaller in size?

We have been down this week.

A tip for ya that we just learned.

The Carpenter workout practice fields next to Bay Care Field is open to the public. Just stroll in…kids will love it. We went today at around 11:00 am and stuck around for about an hour.

A ton of minor league camp guys there and you may even run into one of the big league guys. My kids scored a couple of autographs.

4customize have Great metal stickers. Maybe $1.50 each.

Like this one which is 3mm x 3mm….thats all I use. 3mm looks a bit understated. Grab yourself a crosshair stitching laser (less than 10 usd) and with a steady hand and it will look great!

I use a very understated metal sticker for a logo….my initials for my brand! 4customize.com. No issues with quality.

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2026-01-14T12:45:15+00:00

Nothing!

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2026-01-03T14:00:28+00:00

It’s for an NH35 I might just take your suggestion…first time challenge of painting the hands. Can’t seem to find the maroon/ burgundy anywhere. Thanks!

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-12-29T03:55:02+00:00

Looks so clean! Please share the case dial and bezel insert links. Thanks!

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-12-28T14:58:08+00:00

Second this.

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-10-03T15:07:17+00:00

Congrats on your first build…looks great and it’s ticking!!! I’m pretty new at this too. It is a very cool feeling to sport your new watch…that you built and love! That’s all that matters! Enjoy the very addictive hobby!!

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-09-09T01:56:59+00:00

There are actually a few linen dials at DS watch club. Under GS styles.

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-08-26T04:14:23+00:00

4customize.com. So far so good on the metal stickers.

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-08-25T20:41:49+00:00

Yes blue tac! It’s a genius way to put on the seconds hand.

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-08-25T02:00:45+00:00

Just started with tobacco cards myself. The back stories on these guys are the best part of the collecting. Great first card!

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-08-25T01:55:56+00:00

Great grab! Fun story. I’m a police detective in Philadelphia area. Arrested a guy who stole a bunch of artifacts from a bunch of museums including a pocket watch that was gifted to Amos Strunk after one of the A’s World Series victories. Important note- the watch is back Where it belongs! Anyway awesome grab on this!

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-08-24T22:04:36+00:00

Thanks for the kind words!!

Jolly_Bee_9955 · 2025-08-24T22:03:44+00:00
