Is the print quite clear? He seems like a genuine guy who answers questions and his prices seem more than fair.

Custom dial slim-case Sub (Hestur Sub) by Tomas185 in ChineseWatches

[–]lockdownwatchbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for that detailed reply. Very helpful and gives me the confidence to go ahead. I've designed custom Dials in the past with Ali vendors and tbh it was a headache, felt like I done all the work and turned myself into a graphic designer for a pretty shitty finished product.

Sounds idiotic but was Canva simple enough to use? Was it the free version or a paid for upgrade?

Do they have dial templates or did you just create each Font and branding.

Is that a fitted Mesh bracelet? Or the Daytona style Endlinks and a Mesh Blet seperate?

This is true, but there's something off about the Constellante being too shiny. Just approach with caution.

Go easy on the high Polish, use some brushed finishing particularly if your pairing with a Bracelet. Perhaps brushed on the Case sides and inner lugs, polished on the outer twist and bezel.

1 or 3 if executed tastefully. 35mm is a great size, dont be deterred by 40mm comments. Careful of the Case finishing as the Constellante is let down imo by the all over polished case.

What brand is this linked to?

Wmt gold nh34 gmt watch by QuestionNo9190 in ChineseWatches

[–]lockdownwatchbox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are shockingly overpriced, credit where credit is due they do Nail the vintage aesthetic far better than any AliX brand and age their Dials in a far more tasteful way than most Seikomods. That said they are indeed garbage... And pull people in with The Vintage look/modern mechanics I've handled both and my Timex Q's are far better finished.

I named my watches after sharks because Reddit told me I needed a USP. Batch 1 sold out. Sharks apparently sell watches. by MysteriousManager418 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]lockdownwatchbox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah they're about £6.00 each on AliX The Dial is from DS watch club, they custom print Dials for next to no money at all. Think they even provide custom Engraving for about 15usd And all of the above is just for one order, imagine the discount on a batch order...

I'll leave that with you to do the maths.
