That looks a thousand times better than a white g-shock with a logo stamped on to it. Well done!

[@spankyharland9845]

I think it is the coolest modified AE1200 I have ever set my eyes on. I want to make one myself.

[@supasapien]

this looks way better and seems more original than the official one.

[@aaronmercado8630]

One of the best mods I’ve seen so far

[@rotationdirect]

Hands down coolest mod I've seen for the Royale... awesome work!

[@joshfa5526]

One of the most beautiful, unique and elegant mods I've ever seen! Well done!

[@spudthegreaterusa8386]

Good work chap! Love it when a plan comes together.

[@Soggz7785]

I went to Florida a couple of years ago. Went to NASA and I loved it. Would love a Casio like that to remind me of my visit. All the best.👍🏾🇬🇧😊

[@squallywally]

Just came across your video. Kick Ass mod! The best I have seen!

[@joeclay4700]

the best casio royale mod so far

[@Relumer]

Such a nice mod, like it a lot! Thank you for sharing. I do also enjoy modifying Casio watches. Cheers from Spain!

[@LucasEklund]

The best mod i’ve seen! 😍

[@derjansan9564]

One thing that could be improved is to use decals insead of stickers, so you do not see the cutting edge. But in any case, this is a fantastic mod.

[@Funglejunk81]

Yes, or make a stencil or a stamp for it. Would need to test the right paint

[@souravsarkar6405]

Beautiful

[@geordimaul5380]

What a fantastic conversation and an amazing tutorial Do you have any of those sticker sheets for sale at all? It’s a mod that I would like to replicate Keep up the good work and keep posting your mods

[@ratrage1113]

Any chance you could share the file you put together for the nasa stickers that you send to sticker app? Would love to make my own, it's an absolutely awsome design

[@alexanderm.4837]

This is fucking awesome 😎👍

[@ArrOShooter]

Wow cool

[@amirazian1111]

bro can i know where did you get the flag sticker and NASA sticker?

[@meysammadadi6962]

👌🏻👌🏻

[@monkeyman8265]

That is fucking awesome

[@charudattaalate7176]

Hi, great mod Only 1 thing which I feel you should have done was to paste the NASA sticker slightly below so that it was completely visible Currently the top edge of it is covered by the case Also, would like to see that flag a little more than what can be seen now Regards Ciao

[@kuikkaworks]

Thanks! Actually after the video I put in a new NASA sticker because I wasn't happy with the placement either, took it down like half a millimeter.

[@EgdeFilms]

WOW!

[@thirumurthi]

very nice build and best looking Royale ever! Thanks for sharing your build procedure. Is the Nasa strap (and the strap adapters) 20 mm in size? Thanks

[@kuikkaworks]

Hey, thanks! The strap and adapters are 22mm, there's a mistake in the video that I haven't fixed yet, sorry!

[@themostroast]

Where did you print the tiny stickers?

[@dariuszrysak1133]

Looks nice, but the NASA logo is too close to upper edge... that came out after assembly. Thumb up for good idea ;)

[@Suspendeduser.]

Amazing mod! Was wondering which shape(cutline) you picked for the custom stickers and if you could kindly share the dimensions (WxH) of the stickers. Thank you:)

[@kuikkaworks]

Hey, thanks! The sticker is just one big square sheet, had to cut out the smaller bits by hand, which I just did by tracing out the outline basically. I'm not able to get to a computer for a few days to check the file, I'll try to to get back to you next week with the measurements of the one I ended up using!

[@smartcookie_ibrahim4542]

im in india where can i buy the accecories

[@tiny_blue-dot.]

👏

[@matthell6719]

It needs the solar system unstead of the world map... This is super cool... I want one but I will never be able to do it.

[@kuikkaworks]

That would be amazing, wish it was possible to easily code the modules to do what we want.

[@matthell6719]

@@kuikkaworks Someone at NASA knows how to do it...

[@meltingpoint97]

im trying to order the custome sticker but it only allows sizes of one inch and above?

[@kuikkaworks]

Yeah, the ones I ordered were 10cm x 10cm I think, had to make a file with smaller logos on it that I could cut out.

[@meltingpoint97]

@@kuikkaworks ah that makes sense - will give that a try thanks - really nice job btw one of the best moded royale's ive seen

[@flugercat]

Are you from Finland? In that case, you could make a NATO version instead of NASA 😁

[@i-rok1117]

if i am not mistaken that Nasa sticker is a water slide decal right?

[@kuikkaworks]

Possibly! The place I ordered it from (stickerapp) called it transparent matte.

[@vampyrelycan99]

Think he forgot reinstalling the o-ring gasket. That would be a serious disaster......

[@kuikkaworks]

Forgot it first round, now it's there!

[@vampyrelycan99]

@@kuikkaworks Did you check the gasket's condition and moist it accordingly with quality silicone gresse?

[@KriyaRaya]

i just want it

[@unclassified63]

That white strap will get dirty in no time

[@kuikkaworks]

Good, I like things to be worn.

[@azizsetyo]

Is water resist 10 bar still work?

[@kuikkaworks]

I would say probably yes, the case and caseback are solid and the rubber gasket is in place, but I'm not going to try it out. It's definitely splash- and rainproof, but I take it off before a shower.

[@harshitshandilya6912]

can I get a moon transparent sticker from somewhere like you had an american flag there?

[@kuikkaworks]

I had the same idea, but I couldn't find any that were readymade. There's a shop on Etsy that has ae-1200s with a moon on the analog clock part, but he didn't want to sell just the moon part. I think you'd have to custom order a sticker (there's loads of providers online, I used stickerapp). What I did with the NASA-sticker was estimate the size, and make a sticker with a bunch that were of similar but slightly different sizes so I could pick the best one. Also possible is I think just printing out a moon in the correct size on paper. That would block out the clock, but it's worth a try.

[@pnvsid764]

Bro make few more and sell it. It looks stunning.

[@kuikkaworks]

I'd love to, if it made financial sense. The pricetag would have to start with like a 6 for it to work, and that's a big sum for a Casio.

[@GibsonsVapeShop]

Why not a white case?

[@kuikkaworks]

A white case would fit well too I think. A ceracote one maybe? I felt like the shiny bare metal fit in well with the NASA aesthetic.

[@hope0160]

你好我來自台灣！請問你有販售此款手錶嗎？

[@kuikkaworks]

Hello, unfortunately the parts for this cost so much that it would be very expensive to buy.

[@hope0160]

[@richardmcginnis5344]

looks like something a nurse would wear in the hospital emergency room. no offense meant but the white on white on grey is just a little to sterile

[@kuikkaworks]

In my brain it tilts more towards lunarcore, but I get it.

[@DoctorNemmo]

[@unclassified63]

The flag is round the wrong way
