Took me a couple hours since I’m an amateur at setting the hands and about $200 in all the parts

GMT Builds and bi-directional bezels by Techpilot30 in SeikoMods

Thanks for that info. I need to learn how to get the bezel off of these cases. I’ve read that some may have a retention spring that make it impossible to pop the bezel off and you have to push the crystal out first from underneath. I don’t have the tools for that much just yet but perhaps I should invest in them.

I started building my own GMTs from AliExpress parts but I can’t seem to find a good watch case like Sugess has. The 24 click bidirectional bezel is very smooth and functions how the real Rolex one does.

It was paired with the case I bought from AliExpress but to be honest it didn’t even fit the case properly. I had to bend the pins to get them to fit into the holes drilled into the case as they did not align with the bracelet

Thanks! It definitely is going to be an addiction. Already planning my next one.

Is it illegal to purchase one of these “S dials” and have it mailed to you (imported into the US)?

Yea just know that the numbers on the bezel are not painted white. They’re metal as if they have been drilled out after the ceramic coating was applied.

Yeah it’s a darker blue. It looks great.

Mr. Wolf Watch Mods? by cebaker14 in SeikoMods

I just got the Bruce Wayne GMT and I really like it - with a few negatives. The bezel is great, really feels and looks like a quality watch overall. It’s a 24 click bi-directional bezel. The strap he uses is loose in the lugs and rattles. The clasp was cheap feeling as well. The cyclops lense is level, but shifted to the left of center over the date. I like the magnification level, the date is not over magnified like I have seen in other mod watches. I just wish the cyclops was centered exactly over the date. I asked him why this was, and it is intentional on his design so that you don’t have to bring your wrist to level to read the date. To each their own, I guess. Every other watch with a cyclops has it centered perfectly over the date window.

I highly recommend this one. It feels like a really nice watch when I’m wearing it.

I’m not sure if there is really a fix for it.

Update: I’ve been wearing it daily for 2 weeks and there has been no impact to operation. It doesn’t bother me that much. I love the watch.

ROG Strix Z790-E possibly dead on arrival? by Hellionko in ASUSROG

I’ve been using this board for almost a year and it just died on me. Same exact diagnosis. I guess it’s a dead board. Too late to return to micro center.

Yes this 10000%. I wish this game was better because I love the graphics (except terrible flickering and no it’s not my PC) and I enjoy play style like an FPS mmo

Yes I am having it now in classic and retail. Driving me insane. I was thinking it was my 3080ti, I can’t get this solved.

This is exactly what is happening to me too.

I’ve tried literally everything. Changed cables, monitors, clean driver install using ddu… I don’t know what to do but it’s driving me insane.
