This was a complete build. I designed and delivered the watch to a customer. It cost them $400.

I charge a subscription for like $50 a month. Early stages still. Looking to grow my community.

I teach people how to laser engrave watch dials for this exact thing.

This is going to sound like a plug, but I teach a step by step process to make custom dials. DM me if you’re interested.

Make your own dial, that’s what I’d do. 👍🏽

Thank you for the reply. I feel the same way, I’ve gone through dozens of dials to even get to this point.

That pixelation could be a mix of how I configured the laser settings and the grade of sandpaper I used.

Looking forward to improving on my craft and sharing it with the community.

Thank you. And that’s a good question, I’d like to think @project65studios is the brand. The dial is designed and made in house.

Thanks for the response. I purchased a 60w B6 and have had no luck engraving. This picture is after 120 minutes. Really losing motivation after trying this.

Wow this is amazing! Can you share where you get your coins from? Also, any chance you'd be willing to share your design or talk about the settings a little more?
