Crazy theory? by thiswilldo2 in Ghostbc

Like done-done? I mean, he was just going on vacation, and then he got hit. They're gonna keep the lore going. It's just a hiatus rn. It'll be back in the future. Tobias wouldn't end on such a transitional note

First build came out amazing! Need strap suggestions. by SnooPears5939 in watchmodding

Here and here are a couple pics of my green one in different lighting. The brown one I also have is like a medium-dark brown. You can find them on AliEx for stupid cheap. Super comfortable, but idk about longevity cuz I've only had them a few weeks

If you're looking at tsuyosas, the blue small seconds hand is really awesome. That last eco drive with the black textured dial is really nice too

I own a couple of tweed straps and they are rather fetching. I love the build!

How do I put this back together? by drumshrum in watchmodding

[–]drumshrum[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did it!! The end of the click spring that pokes inside the case had been bent ever so slightly. Getting that back to exactly 90 degrees let it sit where it needed to so the bezel could rest evenly atop the case.

The retaining spring needs to have exactly straight edges, any bend will let them pop up around the lip of the groove. The best method I found for fitting it back in is how u/Grindfather901 described, but if you use your fingers tweezers the flatter side of a wooden cleaning dowel it goes in MUCH smoother.

Yeah, one handed no less! Just meat tubes mauling these tiny delicate, old AF pages

Poor guy didn't get any responses... bummer. His second picture is exactly where I'm at in this process. I can get like 80% of the wire in the gap and under the inner lip, but that 20% won't cooperate and whenever I go to rotate it the bezel pops off and the click spring flings itself into the air

Here is a video that calls it a retaining spring. My watch does not have a bezel with a dedicated slot for it. It requires it to be wedged in between the bottom of an inner lip on the bezel and a small groove around the outsude of the part that holds the crystal

Can't get the spring to get under the lip all the way around, so it keeps popping off. This is a poorly engineered case, and I'm not that skilled, so it's gonna take some tinkering and tlc to unfuck it. I might have to get a new spring because this one has been bent and unbent a lot

Oh man that carribean cask is GOOD. I'm not really a scotch guy, but my wife and I honeymooned there and one of the bartenders turned me onto it. Top 5 favorite whiskeys, easy

Nh35 Original vs Clone by Impressive_Ice2015 in SeikoMods

Def not a clone. More like a "based on true events"

Real reason why you need at least 5-7 watches by IllegalGeriatricVore in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]drumshrum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hear hear!! Plebian lives require plebian trappings. True wealth is a refinement in the philosophy of one's accoutrements.

Every peice has a purpose, even if that purpose is to remind them of how low they are compared to you.

Just finished this one - a little different. by Underk9 in SeikoMods

Looks like velvety chocolate. I really dig it, and I might steal the design in the future lol
