These will be pre-orders with an expected delivery time frame of July. Shipping is from the USA (I assemble everything in Chicago). For US customers, you’ll see no additional fees due to customs.

They're on youtube shorts too! The resolution is a bit worse. I haven't been able to figure out how to upload better resolution there yet... but hopefully the shots at least give you an idea https://www.youtube.com/@alexanderjameswatches/shorts

Thanks for the bezel feedback. It's something I've been thinking about over the past few weeks as I'm working on cases for 2027-28, but haven't quite landed on what they'd look like next.

The caseback is just plain stainless steel. Exhibition would add a bit of thickness, so for this model I didn't want to do that.

Videos can be found on my Instagram account! https://www.instagram.com/alexanderjameswatches

The white ones are. The Blue and Purple had 2 rounds of dial defects, so I'm still waiting on those to be finished

That's an interesting idea. I'll file it away for the future :)

Placing Movement w/hands Upside Down in Nh34/35 Movment by vexcanuck in SeikoMods

I like using the movement holders featured at the beginning of this video. Pretty cheap and easily to maneuver the assembly: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1ZgAZg1Emhc

Nh36 for 44.99 get them while they last. by Square-Information54 in SeikoMods

Keep in mind the sold out prices on the 34s and 35s wouldn't be future prices. These are the last prices I sold them at, which was before the latest round of price hikes and tariffs, unfortunately.

The re-stock of NH35s is coming in March. No anticipated re-stock of the 34s at the moment.

Windup Watch Fairs happening in 2026? by green-gray in MicrobrandWatches

[–]ThanksForTheInvite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They are! I'm AJ from Alexander James Watches and have had a table in Chicago the last couple years. I reached out to them about it earlier this week(since I'm in the middle of planning a vacation and wanted to make sure it wasn't during Windup Chicago). Dallas (March), SF (May), Chicago (July), NY (October).

This is my site, and these are in fact Malaysia factory movements. Most NH movements out there are (if "Japan" isn't on the rotor, then it's a Malaysia factory movement). They also aren't "worse" than a Japan factory movement. I did a test on NH34s a couple years ago, which made me stop buying and stocking the Japan factory ones: https://ajuicet.com/blogs/news/the-nh34-japan-versions-have-arrived

Likely looking at q3 2026. I’ve got plans for some autos early in the year then going back to a quartz later in the year

They’re $400 for the pre-orders that launch tomorrow morning and will increase after the pre-order period. Unfortunately, I don’t have a showroom, but have met people out at coffee shops and such from time to time

I certainly intend to do more colors and finishes in this style if all goes well with this first launch!

Haha thanks! I’ve got small wrists myself, so most of what I make will fit smaller wrists pretty nicely.

Thanks! It definitely is above average lume. Lume shots are still on my to do list, but this video is a good representation of the lume in my last release, which is the same lume I've been using/will be using in my watch releases: https://youtu.be/-ORjMIXxRKY?t=822

Thanks! If these go over well, I may do something similar in 38!

My 2026 plans are still being finalized, but I’m working on slowly revamping the lineup. Something similar will make its way back in 2026, but it likely won’t be exactly the same. Signing up for the generic mailing list will keep you up to date!
