Love these. Particualry smitten with the first one. Really like that white frosted dial one as well. Nice choices.

·

Really nice builds!

·

You have a gift. All tastefully done.

Love the first watch in particular. Did you blue the screws yourself?

I do want to try doing that myself but these ones I took from a certiga works movement

We were just going to use the certiga works movement but the client wanted a nh38 so there wouldn't ghost date position. Changed over the screws and added a new rotor from namokimods.

Yes, it's quite lovely, and it gives me some ideas. I still have a nice brass dial sitting around somewhere, so I could do something in the general color scheme.

Gorgeous! Do you have a shop or something or do you just do commissions?

·

Namoki sells Mingy dials! That might turn me into a modder. 😅

I dig that "grand seiko" and the blue waffle. 👌

Damn, son, don't you sleep??

Hey two things:

1.) Woah! Thats hella impressive and looks fun

2.) How do you make a dial? I’m considering making one, possibly from scratch, but don’t know where to go

I have my Instagram right now. Next year I'm planning on doing a simple website too.

They're currently not on the site but I'm sure they'll bring them back

I haven't made many dials, for those I've just played with paper.

The red dial is washi paper and I had the numbers laser cut. The white is just printed.

As the father of two boys I feel your pain but as a man who spends a lot of time playing trains at 5am I'm still mystified as to where you find the time to be so industrious. 🤣

Oh dear.... 🤤

Excuse me for a moment, I need to wipe the drool on my shirt. Nice watches, @Fiatjeepdriver!
