Upgrading My Custom DREAM GMT Watch

[@RealCKing]

Really enjoyed this two part story. It would be interesting if you could explore creating your own logo and adding it to the watch dial, that would really make it custom!

[@TheNebulaEffectMinecraft]

Please dude I’m trying to do this myself the dimensions are hard to work with in gimp lmao

[@capturedlondon]

Did you watch all the way to the end?!

[@camenskycameron8413]

I think it’d be cooler if he’d engrave the logo into the crown, He pretty much made the logo-less dials his thing and I learned to like it

[@TheNebulaEffectMinecraft]

@@camenskycameron8413 I just wanna make my own logo and have it extruding like my idea is a four leaf clover and the word or Pronoun Quinn cuz it’s my last name

[@TheNebulaEffectMinecraft]

My first name is Cameron so I like ur name lmao

[@parqcizmedits]

Continue with this custom watch videos! I absolutely love watching you build watches, since you don’t do it in a professional/corporate way.

[@andrewdarowski1975]

Im in the process of ordering parts for my own field watch. Ive found this series the most down to earth, and helpful one of the many modding videos of KZbin. Good work dude. The bad thing, is that im already planning my second one before ive even ordered the parts for my first.

[@PseudoParagon]

I’ve made two just order parts for a third… now I’m deciding which movements to try next haha. I’m giving one of them to my dad for a retirement present though so I’m not counting that one haha.ive been doing NH35A movements. I’m struggling to decide between gmt next or chronograph.

[@LePilloleDiFABRIZIO]

it is possible to have the links to compose the same watch

[@jesseharris974]

This watch wasn’t feminine at all even with the other bracelet. Was very enjoyable to watch and to see your pure excitement of making and upgrading your watch. I’m at the start of my watch making journey and stuff like this is really helpful and exciting to watch.

[@NemetFox]

I love how happy this makes you.

[@acidnii]

yes!! its so wholesome :)

[@embeddedautomation2464]

I'm enjoying learning along with you and appreciate the production quality of your videos. The closeups let me see exactly what's happening when you set the hands. Great job and thank you for sharing!

[@TheTl33]

Would you be able to put out a video tutorial on how to search for and find the parts? Like how you make sure the parts will all work with each other, keywords you use to find specific styles of hands, cases, faces…

[@Ciocolatimiai]

Just search NH34/35/36 then add dial, hands, case etc. I search for nh35 case, nh35 dial, nh35 hands. You'll find exactly what you need.

[@danielhigaredaleon1980]

Check the description. That’s where he gets his parts.

[@farouk858]

Yeah I back this, would love to see how you pick and choose what you order and how to make sure you’re getting the right parts - especially for absolute beginners like me

[@AndréSilva-w1c8v]

most nh parts fit with each other I believe. Most common parts are nh35

[@augustellison1585]

Built my very own after seeing your first watch video and I'm obsessed! I made the mistake of not getting a hand pusher or the fancy blue tack, so the seconds hand took me a while to get on but nothing beats wearing a watch you built every day :)

[@oscaraldeguer]

I just feel so identified with this man right here, because I'm just as perfectionist as he is. People around me just think I'm overdramatic with certain things, so I really enjoy watching another me lol, it couldn't feel more relatable. Congrats on these great videos btw!

[@byteme9718]

Having hands lined up is not being a perfectionist.

[@RodrigoPizarro-n5h]

Watch are the ultimate Men's accesories！Enjoyed watching your collection. Keep going！As a watch enthusiast and watch reviewer, I can say MAMACOO this was a great choice. Enjoyed your video!

[@dawidz9511]

I love watching these. I've now built close to 15 watches(I need to stop, help me please) since your 62MAS homage where you got me hooked on this hobby. I can't wait to watch the next one. Cheers

[@uchechris7822]

15??, Pls start posting yours. Pictures at least

[@uchechris7822]

15??, Pls start posting yours. Pictures at least

[@jezzamatic]

I'm on my second watch build and I'm waiting on parts for a titanium case diver to arrive. It's so rewarding and gives you endless pleasure seeing something on your wrist that you assembled/built. Also it's a nice present to give a loved one a custom watch to their specs and design!

[@StittSpring]

got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on MAMACOO 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist. Chose the 3-link over the 5-link bracelet for the toolless quick adjustment. Way more comfortable than my Longines Hydroconquest 41 mm.

[@JosheKahraman]

that was incredible. what a beautiful watch and what great work you did on it!I love MAMACOO watch!! Dream watch! Everytime I wear it, makes me feel amazing!

[@azoscar1]

Really enjoying this content Elliot, makes me want go back to analog again! So cool. ❤

[@shalashSeielstad]

AMZWATCH has set a new standard for replica watches. Their craftsmanship is impeccable. Its hard to tell the difference from the originals

[@greedymowfow]

Made my very own after watching your videos. I am now addicted 😅 Cool and fun alternative to get really nice looking watches that you won’t get stabbed for, and that you can customise almost endlessly. Tx for sharing!

[@MvsG18]

Can you please start uploading these videos in 4k. These watches are too beautiful too appreciate them fully in just 1080p. Thanks man

[@garystewart6861]

First time hearing about a "Deck" watch but now know the history of this type from the website. Always improving knowledge of time pieces thanks to JOMW! Fantastic

[@TheRonanEdition]

Elliot I am loving this watch content! Thank you for bringing us along as you dive into your new hobby!

[@mohamedhesham2192]

after watching you I think I have a new hobby I'm waiting till I travel and work in the UK then I will be able to build some of these watches

[@leepullon1147]

rodico has lots of uses with watch building! its very handy to get tiny specks of dust off a watch face with out harming it and i liked to place items i didnt wanna lose in it like screws etc when i used to service watches

[@DawnPeterson-l8h]

I just got into watch collecting. I've loved watches since I was young but I never had anyone teach me or bring deeper into the world. amzwatch brought closer to a community and hobby I always wanted to get into more and that is incredibly meaningful to me !

[@MonkeyFRYZ1]

What a build. BEAUTIFUL. No logo actually ADDS to it as it’s a custom

[@ElderPinto254]

lovely summerwatch oh so fresh and clean you ever have questions i am a watchmaker from holland so just ask!! rodico is watchmaker third hand and carbon tweezers very nice and yes movement holders you realy need!!!

[@Crushanator1]

i just ordered parts yesterday for my first build thanks in part to this series making it look approachable. Its a Seiko and somewhat funnily i did white and silver with the cyan lume and hands

[@illusivebounce]

one of the nicest looking watches i’ve ever seen 👌🏻

[@riemonasis4972]

Your enthusiasm made me click that subscribe button... Absolutely stunning build, i recon for my own build instead of buying from vanilla watch brands

[@HitnRunTony]

I love how excited you get with some of the littlest things in life.

[@BegleyCefalu]

I have to say that AMZWATCH 's watches are amazing!

[@StuGhostface]

In 1 weeks time I have put a oled screen in my original GBC and revived a old seiko 4004 from 1977 so it’s pretty awesome to see one of my favorite KZbinrs doing the same thing 😁

[@LKBRICKS1993]

It looks so cool loving this series.

[@elliotcoll]

So am I!

[@dennischang5296]

If this was a NH34 with the GMT movement, why can't you just adjust the GMT hands to the right position from the crown?

[@quentinaoustin7543]

I am so glad to see a part two on this ! Really liking your watch content ! Keep on going ! 😁🙏🏻

[@KpaBaPa]

I personally would go for the discreet jubilee bracelet as this one has a very sharp clasp.(mine did anyways)

[@TheSkaldenmettrunk]

Still a beautiful watch and it's even prettier with the new bracelet. I love it.

[@aaronbridgewood-3050]

Just found your channel and was asking my parents I wanted a good automatic watch now I have seen this and the first one am going to make my own😊

[@KennyBacchus-l1i]

Upgrading. My. Custom. Dream. GMT. Watch

[@goatreviews]

Awesome upgrade! 👌 Man, I feel the same way about the finger-doms 😂 Definitely make the fingers numb afterwards, and they are also quite slippery.

[@therichieboy]

Well done. Super nice looking watch. Those AliExpress parts can be extremely good quality.

[@JaPesTube]

I was glad to see this pop up in my feed. Thanks for creating this.

[@Tink-GB]

The boy is learning...but twist the rodeco to a point and it's sticky enough to barely pick up the hand by its pointy tip allowing you to place the hand and push fit it with the slightest touch

[@vishalkaushal4311]

Hey I see that there are a lot of dial size options available 29, 31 mm. What size should be ordered to fit this submariner style case?

[@WyvernDotRed]

1:00 My Vostok Komandirskie watch also is like that. The hour and minute hands are out by 5 minutes and the 24 wheel of this model is out by 20 minutes from the hours hand. Not that this bothers me as it does not affect reading the time and is part of the Russian made roughness of it. The most watchmaking I have done is regulating this piece and modifying 3 Casios.

[@Sherlock-py2hh]

I recently started building NH35 based watches and enjoy your content. By accident I found that a tiny amount of rodico on the tip of the second hand pusher grips the hand directly over the post. With a decent magnification I can line up and push the hand on easily. Also the grippy back of the case cushion is excellent for removing/tightening screw-in case backs.

[@gracefulannie-grcflannie-]

I would've never been interested in watching somebody build watches or a scooter, but somehow I enjoy both when Elliott does it.

[@Arman-ic9cg]

Amazing mate, please keep doing these vids. I've ordered my first tools to play arounf with my watch and you inspire to try and build my own from scratch

[@SnyperMac1]

Doesn’t the GMT hand move independently from the other hands when you’re at the date selection function and turn the crown the opposite direction?

[@jetlife2]

This absolutely resembles the Christopher Ward C65 Aquitaine GMT. Your bezel is a lighter blue but they both look great. On the other hand I think the jubilee bracelet is too dated and the oyster style is cleaner. Everyone’s taste is different of course!

[@mr.yuuochung8083]

it looks so good that im really considering trying to make one.

[@LuisAraujo-h4d]

When people are saying #amzwatch is a better option for buying a watch,I very much agree!

[@HamnerdGaming]

You’ve inspired me to get into watch building 😄

[@pollatso]

Love the colour you chose for this watch really great content if my eyes 👀 were good enough I really would give making one the same a go.👍👍🙏

[@DunePanda]

Btw I ordered everything you had linked and here are my findings: 1- to find the correct pushers to hse is almost impossible. 2- the nh34 is fairly lose inside the nh34 case. 3- the hammer sticker was nothing like yours. I got a flimsy skeletonized sticker. 4- the blue bezzle was NOTHING like yours. So I had to order black hands with a blue gmt hand. 5- I went with a grey leather strap. 6- the seconds hand was the hardest to push in. I was soo scared if I pushed it wrong it would destroy the seconds post. Note to anyone who thinks this is easy....IT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT. It would be easier if I had a microscope because these parts are Flippin TINY! Rodico was a life saver.

[@Loki-ur5if]

omg I love the turquoise color

[@bajtre]

Hello, it seems Rodico link and movement holder have the same aliexpress link, can you edit so I can see exactly what did you buy? thanks!

[@adammm4914]

Hey man I saw that u didnt link the movement holder, I would love it if u did

[@BrewTimeRS]

Really enjoyable content, first video I've seen from you, thanks to the algorithm I noticed you're like myself and shake a lil bit, try and release some of the tension from your arms/hands as best you can when trying to focus, it's easy to get tense under the concentration, but relaxing will ease a lot of those shakes And get yourself a loupe asap! The difference it makes is incredible and you'll have a deeper understanding of the movement you're working on The blue is so nice, don't think it would suit me, but just another video that is getting me tempted to pimp a watch of my own!

[@yrath5034]

Michael J Fox helping with the hand placement.

[@svensoworka2389]

Could you please make a video of how to find the right suiting parts for any watch?? Im trying to build my own but am struggling with finding the right pieces.

[@jpprice14duh]

Loved the first video. Its even better with the new band. I have the same one on my galaxy watch 6 classic.

[@EudesRJ]

About the GMT hand, would be just moving/setting it to align? At least on a ronda 515.24H the GMT hands moves freely on the setting position

[@Rudy24244]

If you worry about scratching the metal, you can use the plastic bag your bracelet came in, placing it between the watch and the screwdriver.

[@JC.LC.]

Where do i get the case Springs? Do they come with the watch case?

[@simonsibthorpe2546]

Omg I have just ordered all the bits to make mine exactly the same 😮

[@Andeoppaa]

Are all of the lume the same color as the dial? Cus when I ordered from the list the hands are green and the dial is blue.

[@davemcgahhey]

Beautiful! BTW they are called finger cots 😉

[@Gabriel2.0]

It will sound weird but when my plastic tips tweezers wear out, I just sharpen them with an exacto knife. Works like a charm to make a propper sharp tip

[@dylanlyons6]

you have inspired me to build my own watch! Just one question though...how is it in terms of weight? My fear is that I'd buy parts that are light and cheap feeling, but look good. Thanks

[@DragonMasters525]

the custom watch is insane

[@ImranShamsul]

Apart from the tools being upgraded, was the bracelet the "upgrade"?

[@mr.madlock9687]

Nice watch. I wonder if there’s a bezel that’s half blue half silver. That would be so nice

[@braxtontra]

You really hammered us with ads on this one…

[@manystylesxjunki]

What usually throws me off on those 200~500 gmt replica type watches are the bracelets jiggling and making a sound. Was wondering if you would be able to find like a really high quality bracelet for the watch

[@Nova_Shiny]

ive been binging all your content on both channels since finding these watch videos lmao inspiring stuff.

[@frederikwennerstrm5435]

Would love to see you make a open heart Watch!!

[@chevy8613]

Do you have a links to all the watch parts? Would love to make one like it! New to building watches.

[@pizza.doctor]

Hey Elliot, how are you planning to add your logo to the dial? I want to do something similar

[@flitz4620]

Hey your videos inspired me to start making watches and i finished my first one a couple days ago its super fun thank you for making these vids

[@juliomr100]

if you like watch repairing watches, I can suggest Wristwatch Revival. The Bob Ross of watches

[@thomas3]

You should try to create a cartier tank/Jaeger lecoultre inspired watch, that would be so cool

[@gabrielerinaldi1849]

I love these videos , i Just ordered my "Frankenstein" with nh35 .

[@fokuscs]

oyster bracelet is good for daytona's or some of datejust's, for submariner jubilee looks better. And this watch is built too good, for what it actually is. but we can tell that you spent a lot of your time on that. Keep up the good work bro!

[@aidangaspar7580]

I use a hockey puck as a cushion… works wonders

[@makedaevilmage]

That mate, is a very nice looking watch!

[@ChaFairchild]

Question, why couldn't you just adjust the GMT hand to line up with the hour and minute hand? I can adjust the GMT hand by twisting the opposite direction from the date settings on the crown. Did it still just refuse to line up then?

[@elliotcoll]

The alignment of it was off.

[@parqcizmedits]

it was installed wrong

[@tudorstan4837]

Hello, can you add the link for the movement please?

[@SilentCanary]

I love your videos!! I really want to build or buy a custom GMT 😢

[@erfanuddin9821]

Just one thing. Is this aliexpress movement is giving proper time keeping?

[@SchemberBrandsrud]

I love kislux that on the butterfly bag it says auguri / tanti auguri which means happy birthday

[@lampogiallo98]

Is it possible do not use the movement holder into the case watch?

[@apx1911]

love the meticulousness, do the bezel next. It seems slightly misaligned 😅keep up the builds!

[@dodgydruid]

I have here latex gloves, finger cots and a bag of cotton gloves, took me a while to find cots that I could put up with as I have super thick hands and fingers, my little fingers are both Z's and my middle finger is Z+4... standard cots just don't fit nor gloves but the cotton ones do stretch enough to not be restrictive.

[@blankczechz]

Watch out for cotton as it can leave fibers on the movement. If you can find aftermarket nitrile or latex gloves in extra large you can cut off the thumbs and see if they fit.

[@mikevac1978]

what is the best way to trim the crown stem?

[@still976]

Jubilee is way better than the Oyster bracelet!! Also a nice addition that you have the Glidelock adjustment on it, which the real GMT doesn't actually have! Wish mine did!

[@ThugByChoice]

It might help to use a loupe when aligning the hands.

[@heyimhy]

love the tiffany blue color 🥰 but i like the oyster band more than the jubilee one

[@smallyo1234]

The links dont work anymore, anyone know where I can find the parts?

[@theotimepirmolin9058]

i feel like it would probably easier for you to have a much lower chair/much higher desk (that is the setup most matchmaker use) other than that great job

[@AbandonedRaven]

Is the bracelet actually like a glide lock or is it just mimicking the look?
