The Goat is back!!! You’re a big reason why I started modding watches leading to now creating my own content on my channel with a few mod videos my self, so I was super excited to see a new videos from you Eric!! Looking forward to seeing more content. ✌️

Great work my friend! Happy to see another video from you!

[@blacksmithmods]

Great to see you back! I was a bit worried already.

Amazing design, happy to see that new video notification. 0:30 orange/ blue design also looked nice for a build.

[@LumeShot]

Thanks so much for the support! That one was a very tempting choice, perhaps for the next spontaneous build :)

[@samaantree]

Yesss that metalic Orange sundial and orange and blue crown insert was looking really lovely ☺️.

Glad you're doing videos

Exquisite work, beautifully done. I've just done my first ever watch assembly, a 62mas style. It was a bit nerve wracking and not at all professional but I'm pleased with how it turned out! It was a pleasure watching your work. With appreciation and kind regards.

Really maniacal precision.. Respect!

[@nwest6451]

Really great work and thinking. The bezel and insert works particularly well.

[@noelmurphy3450]

Thanks for the really interesting and informative video build. The watch looks excellent. Thanks very much- I think I need to visit your website 👏👏👏

[@igormannek]

What case is this ?

[@DIES3L]

Nice video ! what is the square case on the bottom right we can see at 0:08?

[@cylentone]

This is my dream - have enough watch parts to randomly build a special timepiece. For me, blue is the new black, but I totally understand your approach. Thanks for sharing. KZbin question: is it me, or does YT not allow me to tag other YT creators in my comments?

[@JesusFAndrade]

Where do you source the seiko dials

[@rutilojurado9878]

of course the build came out stunning, but man that bezel is so Cool!! Several years ago you did a Mod for me with a similar bezel....still looks great

[@LumeShot]

thanks for your support! The bezel is very comfortable to use too

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

Another great video brother ❤

[@LumeShot]

thanks dude!

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

@@LumeShot Have an amazing weekend my man!

[@dank4522]

How do you remove a bezel insert if you put it on with that 3M bezel tape. I'm having a lot of trouble trying to get something between the insert and the bezel. Any ideas?

[@ArneAsada69]

I forgot you existed. Been away too long.

[@LumeShot]

sorry for being MIA! Next video is already done and will be posted soon :)

[@gilsondourado3383]

Beautiful watch, but the Willard has a different shape-this one looks more like the Turtle.

[@LumeShot]

the inner reminds me of the 6105, identity crisis throughout

[@Bloved-Madman]

Where do you get the 4R movements from?

[@LumeShot]

seiko parts distributor

[@Beatboxzilla]

imma make kne too

[@rayp4008]

My dude, you need to get some sun. Love your videos and work, but I kept getting distracted thinking you were wearing full gloves with weird rings on.

hahaha

[@realVertiqo]

I really dont want to be that guy but isnt the bezel and bezel insert misaligned? Like... shouldnt the Triangle of the Bezel insert be matched with a peak of the Bezels edge?

[@LumeShot]

The outer edge of the bezel does not end on a click when centered like that. If the "triangle" section of the outer edge was put to 12 as you mentioned, then the bezel mechanism itself would be in a middle position between two clicks. Aesthetically it would make sense ( or even have the space between two "triangle" edges be positioned at 12 ), but functionally it would not since you won't "click" into the centered position. I'd take function over form for the bezel since it is used for timing and clicks are a tactile indication of rotation/position, which is useful for when visibility is not always so clear ( like in water ). Hope that makes sense!
