First try Phase 2 modding…

Ok was confident enough to get the bezel insert in…

But I noticed that it sticks out a bit but seems ok… then I proceeded to change the crystal which was not bad but I should have taken the bezel out before but impatient me didn’t and as soon as I press down *crack* … not the glass but my ceramic bezel 🤦‍♂️…oh well 

but manage to change the chapter ring…still not done anyways so waiting for the hands and the new bezel inserts bought two this time just in case…

Overall even with the bezel insert fail…This is awesome!! Just felt like sharing!! 😁🍻

Also do you guys know how do you know if the crystal is set in place properly see picture above do I need to press down more??…

oh yeah bent my new antimagnetic tweezer and chipped my bezel remover… 😤😔

Nice!! I had issue like too, I had to use a flat bezel insert on the Orients as I couldn't find a double domed sapphire domed enough for the sloped 24hr bezel. You can kinda see the edge in the picture

Looks cool non the less but the little lip just kept eating at me.

yeah man… I wasn’t sure if I ordered the right part or not but apparently I guess it’s just how it goes…I replaced the hardlex to flat sapphire so I hope the new bezel insert won’t give me any problems…I hope 🤞

Cool mod!! I might do a mod on my kamasu next… this can get addicting in itself… 🍻

Righton!! I was going to replace the bezel on the Kamasu but after wearing a bit I don't think I can find a green bezel that I would be happy with so I just replaces the crystal with domed, put the Kamasu flat crystal in a Ray2, and I'm going to get the Strapcode Beads of Rice bracelet for it. Going through some med drama at the moment so everything is on hold as far as any new projects or watches but, chomping at the bit brother!!!
