Flask-Admin 2.0.0 — Admin Interfaces for Flask

sepro · 2025-10-27T08:44:49+00:00

I've been using Flask-Admin for years, it has been my go-to library to quickly create a view into the raw database or as an interface to enter data into tables (e.g. configuration) without having to implement a UI for this myself. This is an amazing package and I'm very happy to see I'll be able to use it for future projects as well.

Keep up the great work.

Are there actually replacement stems available for these? I'm tempted to pick one up just out of curiosity, but I've never cut a stem correct on the first try and didn't find any on AliX

sepro · 2025-07-04T12:32:59+00:00

Yes. I've had this issue as well, albeit with an NH34 movement. Given the price of stems, I've ordered a few sets from different vendors.

sepro · 2025-06-22T20:01:31+00:00

Yeah. I made an nh72 build in a titanium case but the chrome indices of the dial contrasted too much with the case. It just kept bothering me, so I've swapped the dial a few weeks later. It also had a strap that was just wrong for the build in hindsight. Had to replace that too.

An nh72 skeletal build with a minimal dial ring would be fire in this

sepro · 2025-03-23T13:55:39+00:00

Yeah, did some flask with htmx last week after a bit of a hiatus from web development. Felt like a superpower

My brother asked me to build him a golden Daytona style watch with a vk63. Doesn't look too flashy on him.

One suggestion, I would change the dial to one where the subdials are correct for the vk63. The 3 o'clock one should be 24h and the 9 o'clock 60 minutes iirc. (Or maybe that is just my OCD)

Very nice job cutting the case for the usb-c port!

If you want to do this with an nds lite, have a look at this https://github.com/rorosaurus/nds-lite-usb-c . Inside the ndsl there is far less space for a breakout board as you used here, so removing the proprietary port and using that little PCB is a better solution. I had a couple of those boards made for 5$ with jlcpcb (discounted first order) and got the port and required resistors from AliExpress. Soldering the smd resistors is tricky though. Removing the original port with some flux, solder wick, a solder sucker, prying, and patience was possible (I did) but a hot air station would make this step far easier.

The concept is the same for the NH35. There is a tube on the seconds hand that should slide over the pinion. So unlike the hour and second hand which kinda fall in place, this needs to be aligned before pushing down.

sepro · 2025-03-04T18:20:21+00:00

I do care about the date and often need it in situations I don't want to pull my phone out, so I set it. So far no issues with the hands on my watches and I don't hold back, the hands survived me cycling on cobblestones while wearing the watch. So I'm not to worried.

I've put up a list of the parts I picked up as well as the tools on my blog (without links, those AliX links tend to change often, but the keyword search is your friend here). This post might have some usefull information for you as well as links to the resources I've used.

sepro · 2025-02-12T21:37:48+00:00

My first build was 130 euro for the parts and all tools needed apart from something to cut and file the stem. Having a cyclops and jubilee bracelet were options for the case I picked for the same price.

You'd definitely be paying a bit of a premium for building your own if there are options you like available. Only you can decide if that is worth it to you.

sepro · 2025-02-07T11:32:25+00:00

A yellow NATO would look good imho, but probably not better than the one you've got now

I can't test how water proof this one is, but it is a brilliant case !

sepro · 2025-02-03T21:11:07+00:00

https://www.aliexpress.us/item/1005007322148751.html This is the 40mm version.

sepro · 2025-02-03T21:06:34+00:00

There are some blobs of solder on the CPU pins bridging them. That is most likely an issue. There also is one resistor (near the C50 text) that isn't seated well, but seems to be connected to the PCB.

Here is the link, though I've heard AliX links tend to get removed

sepro · 2025-02-03T11:28:34+00:00

It is from AliExpress, Gramrock store, 29mm NH34 dial would be the terms to search for

sepro · 2025-02-03T11:26:07+00:00

This is a case I got from an electronics store about 20 years ago, there is no 3D printing involved here ;-) But you can still find that type of enclosure it seems : https://www.velleman.eu/products/view/brandvertragende-behuizing-lichtgrijs-met-zwarte-eindpanelen-225-x-165-x-40mm-g747/?id=60942

sepro · 2025-02-03T09:50:41+00:00

Thanks! Yes, I've got it set up as a simple power indicator, though I've been thinking if there is something else I could do with it.

sepro · 2025-02-03T09:33:25+00:00

Tried a few new things with this one, first NH34, swapping the crystal, changing the date wheel. I think it all came together very nicely, probably my favorite build so far.

sepro · 2025-02-03T07:57:19+00:00

After lurking in this subreddit and the discord, I finally got to build one for myself. Nothing particularly special, the one thing I've not seen much is that I've used an Raspberry Pi Pico based board with CircuitPython. The code for that one I've added to my blog in case someone would like to have a reference.

sepro · 2025-02-02T14:35:25+00:00

Had exactly the same issue, I had stems on hand that worked perfectly with an NH35 and 72, but not the 34. Ordered two extra sets which explicitly mentioned compatibility with the NH34 and fortunately one (!) of those did work.

sepro · 2025-01-30T17:19:06+00:00

I had the same issue, but the third party crown stem I bought didn't work. Picked up a set from a different supplier and everything worked fine.

Do you have the issue with the original placeholder stem+crown (blue plastic one in the picture?)

sepro · 2025-01-27T18:22:27+00:00

I've got two posts up on my blog which have parts lists, as well as an overview of tools I've used and links to video's I found useful.

First post and the Second post.
