In this engaging video, I demonstrate the entire process of building a custom vintage-inspired dive watch. I start by showcasing the components used in this build, including the TokeiLab case inspired by the 62MAS vintage Seiko diver. Follow along as I share valuable tips and tricks to tackle challenges in assembling the watch, such as installing the chapter ring, crystal, bezel, dial, and hands.
Throughout the build, I highlight the importance of quality components and share my personal experiences with various suppliers, including my high recommendation for TokeiLab. Discover how I modify the Seiko dial to fit the movement perfectly, and learn how to deal with bezel inserts and double-sided tape for secure adhesion.
In the end, I showcase the final result - a stunning custom watch with a black dial, rectangular hour markers, and Tudor-style snowflake hands. Paired with an olive green NATO strap, this versatile timepiece is not only a testament to my skill but also an inspiration for those looking to embark on their own watch modding journey. Don't miss this insightful step-by-step guide for watch enthusiasts and aspiring modders alike!
