Trying Namoki's NMK932

Now, I started this build because I was looking for a different case for a "toolish" type of watch, and was not a diver. The fixed bezel is an interesting shape, seemingly extending towards the lugs. The top of the case is brushed, the sides are polished.

I used parts from other suppliers for the chapter ring, the case back, dial and hands. (The dial was customized and does not represent an actual brand.)

At first I had some trouble with the crystal gasket, and it eventually got pinched. The case is SKX compatible in many ways, so a standard SKX crystal gasket solved the issue.

The case feels very sturdy, and the well-seated dual crown gaskets should be noted. A chapter ring provided by AliExpress worked fine, and I used a standard stainless case back, which fit the case nicely.

The only drawback is a little imperfection of the chapter ring at 9 o'clock, which I must have missed in my quest to get the alignment just right. But after that alignment effort, I'm not going to pop the crystal again. 😎

Overall I really liked the shape of the case, and that it was indeed SKX compatible as far as the crystal (gasket), chapter ring, and case back were concerned. It also came with fat spring bars that seem to be the best I've seen so far.

I really love the fat spring bars, but they do not work in their bracelet to fit to a stock SRPD case lol. Namoki is my go-to mod supplier, they’re great!

Excellent work and tasteful choices on the build 🔥🔥🔥

Yeah, I was wondering what the fat springbars would fit. They fit into the tropical straps above rather snugly, but it worked well in the end.
