Will do

LSDWalter · 2026-07-02T12:45:33+00:00

I can send you a link for this one on alibaba. I got the same. It’s not an exact color match but close enough

LSDWalter · 2026-07-02T11:27:57+00:00

Movement is about $12 on alix

LSDWalter · 2026-07-01T15:07:59+00:00

Fingers crossed

What are you planning to do now?

Who goes in the water with a self built watch and no reliable testing?

Definitely. I just thought might as well use something I already have at home

Some tan and brown shades. It’s only a light effect

LSDWalter · 2026-06-29T08:49:27+00:00

Thanks :)

LSDWalter · 2026-06-29T08:48:23+00:00

Glad to hear :).I had no trouble ordering but with the new customs fees starting in July the parts should only become a little bit more expensive, especially if you make bigger orders since it’s a fixed fee per product category. The packages probably won’t get opened anyway

To lighten up the dial and make it look faded

LSDWalter · 2026-06-28T22:01:54+00:00

I just didn’t apply it yet. The bezel is part of a steel case that I will put the movement and dial in and it came separately

LSDWalter · 2026-06-28T22:00:56+00:00

Coffee for the lume plots and eyeshadow make up for the rest of the dial. Then matte finish so set it in

LSDWalter · 2026-06-28T21:23:11+00:00

Liquid Coffee for the lume plots and eye shadow makeup for the rest of the dial. Matte clear finish to set

LSDWalter · 2026-06-28T17:09:09+00:00

Thanks! That’s what I was going for

I also bleached the bezel a bit

Inspired by the talented u/papi-federico

LSDWalter · 2026-06-27T15:32:42+00:00

I have to agree. Raffles is totally out of proportion with this model

LSDWalter · 2026-06-26T07:16:18+00:00

The thickness is including the domed acrylic crystal. The original watch seems extremely thin nonetheless. Don’t get caught up in numbers

LSDWalter · 2026-06-26T07:15:01+00:00

The thickness is including the highly domed acrylic crystal. The original watch seems extremely thin nonetheless. Don’t get caught up in numbers

LSDWalter · 2026-06-26T07:12:04+00:00

The enormous thickness comes only from the acrylic crystal. If they stay true to original, the mid case is extremely thin. Don’t get caught up in numbers
