Hi Brian, late to this vid sorry, but it's helping my endeavour to replace broken dial feet; thank you. I'm also hoping to rehouse some old manual movements in the future. I'm wondering, regarding solder; to what extent do I need to worry about the heat affecting the surface of a vintage dial, especially when first tinning the underside? I realise every situation will be unique, but have you encountered problems with this?

I’d like to get a dial made. Is getting the Lum on the hands to match the dial is that not so difficult, or is that a real issue to achieve uniformly?

Nice review. They must have come down since last year. I just got mine from Temu for $54 including tax and free shipping. Had a stuborn Seiko case back that was cranked on at the factory and it took it off easy.

Some names I like, some not so much. Submariner I like. Hatch Master not so much. Hatch Master! In that case I’d take a sterile dial thanks. And homage watch manufacturers that feel the need to only offer the watch with their logo. No thanks. It’s annoying. And then there was, I think a Thorn watch fifty fathoms homage that had a line of text with a word that wasn’t even an English word. A KZbinr mentioned this to Thorn, but they still ignored him and put the words on the dial regardless. 😂 Priceless. Maybe they are thinking that that’ll make them collectible. 😮

I just got another Chinese watch with the LD53 movement - the "Louie Juelen Design 2021" (No. 587) chronograph. I've never used a chronograph, and the watch didn't come with instructions. Instead of the usual two extra buttons, there are two spots in similar places where you push in with a pointy object. The main (central) minute hand tends to wander a bit when the watch is running normally, rather than simply progress a tiny bit each second, though It seems to be keeping good time. When I pull out the crown to adjust it, there's a lot of play in the minute hand. That hand - and the central second hand - doesn't seem to have any chronograph function. The third small extra hand, which goes from 0 to 24 hours (located at 3 o'clock), seems to be adjustable only by changing the time of day. LATER: I found what I think are relevant instructions at rotorcraftwatches.com, for their LD53-3 watch, which seems to use this movement. Is the LD53 movement a copy of the Hattori (SII) VD53?

you can pad print on about any surface, durability depends on the ink used and the surface. I like using multipurpose ink, but it's also cased in a watch. As for tools needed, perhaps more of my watch tools vidoes.

the person wanted their old Seiko fitted with a quartz movement, so it's their choice if the dial has the original text and the movement has been changed. I wouldn't sell new builds with that design, but for a person's personal project and watch, that's their choice.
