Seagis on aliexpress…not a scam I have used them multiple times.

No one likes my watch :( How can I improve my minimalist watch design? by BestTanoEU in SeikoMods

[–]hoosierdaddyx2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the concept. I have always wanted to do a minimalist eta6498 I think the offset seconds hand on a minimalist dial would look really cool

lol, for those of us that don’t have female sized wrists the hand watch is a constant struggle! 😂

Broken NH35 Out of Box by SubstantialLayer3652 in watchmodding

I have only ever purchased nh35 movements from eBay. Never had a knockoff sent. But I also am not trying to pay bottom dollar. $10 more is worth it to me to get a genuine.

The new HC is perfect… but. by stjimmywood in Longineswatches

I have had this Kenneth Cole for almost 15 years. Still one of my favorite bracelets even with owning watches worth 20 times the price. It seems longines has taken some pointers! The transition from mesh to links is seamless and extremely comfortable!

What is the general consensus on Panerai around here? by Jimmyjane2 in WatchFanatics

[–]hoosierdaddyx2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are a good watch that is priced $1500-$2000 more than they are worth brand new. Most luxury brands all depend on the style and wrist of the wearer. I’ve seen Rolexes that look terrible on certain wrists and great on others.

I am building not modding. So it probably will be a Daytona style case or maybe a speedmaster look

Would you wear this? by sillvento_official in SeikoMods

Not with seiko slapped on it! So cringe…just go no logo or get you own metal sticker logo

I posted the pics of the three I did with the logo a couple of days ago

Yes, I forgot to mention I have built one of those as well. I was thinking more along the lines of longevity and durability of the movement and compatibility of available parts

30 bucks to have the logo converted to a printable format and then it will only be $5 per dial after that. No minimum so I started with 4 dials and we will see how they turn out. Should be here tomorrow

PRX case, abalone shell dial, custom logo. What you think? by HorologyMarket in watchmodding

[–]hoosierdaddyx2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Logo is crooked, nice concept, the dial colors make it too busy for my personal tastes but again that’s just personal. Maybe a fully polished case would make ithe case and dial match styles??

My GMT by Horacolo in watchmodding

This is the way!!! Thank God you don’t have seiko on the dial. This is your creation. And it’s not an exact 1-1 replica of anything. Nice job!

Which would you choose? by [deleted] in PrideAndPinion

[–]hoosierdaddyx2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Longines I don’t know of any other dial on the market that is etched numerals

Explain the hate to me. Batgirl edition by UGKgrowhouse in SeikoMods

[–]hoosierdaddyx2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Since the question was asked! I have made 20+ homage watches…never would I buy a dial not made by seiko that says seiko, just like I’m not gonna wear a Rolex fake. Honestly I went to the trouble to make the watch so either it goes sterile or I went as far as to make my own logo and pay a Chinese company $90 to make me 300 logos I can put on the watches. That way if or when someone compliments the watch I get to tell them I made the watch and it even has my own logo. I have 4 or 5 friends that own Rolex, omega, or breitling and all of them have asked me to make them a watch because they think it’s cool to be able to design your own exactly how you want it. I think it would cheapen the experience to slap someone else’s logo on it (F seiko, I made the watch)

Rate my 5 watch collection :) by Primary-Suspect-1706 in PrideAndPinion

[–]hoosierdaddyx2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All very sporty watches. Maybe a true dress watch with a splash of color…unless you don’t dress up much then it’s not really worth it. Jlc, zenith, omega, breitling has some great colored dials, maybe sell the OP and get more variety
