First build.

Hello there,

I am thinking/planning to do a custom build using a Namoki waffle dial. This one:

I know I want to use an NH35 with this 28.5mm dial but am not sure how to go about finding the right case that would fit this combo dial/movement. Namoki's selection is somewhat limited.

Any advice for a newbie? This is my first mod project. I am familiar with opening and taking movement/dials out from Seikos having done one myself and also watching a bunch of YouTubers. So basically I know nothing 😅.

I'm new to this also. I went through Aliexpress for the parts. I did want to spend the amount that Namoki parts cost then screw them up. I would also recommend having the correct tools. It'll make your build so much easier. I just made sure everything was compatible. Their cases come with sapphire crystal and crown.

It didn't come out too badly. I will be replacing the second hand. I was a little rough on it while installing it(hence having the right tools).
