Summer monster

It's a group from the beginning that I wanted to make a summery mod。 Speaking of summer, it's a blue dial、When I was aiming for something like a rugspo ...。Should this be a SEIKO mod? A little remorse ...。 Because the diameter is as large as 41 mm、Adopted the needle of the original material diver variation。 Along with that, I felt that the index of the original tapestry dial was too thin.、I'm using the Seamaster dial。 This dial is、The appearance changes from blue gray to emerald green depending on the amount of ambient light.。   A complex and strange frame-shaped breath that is one of the icons of a certain ○ -hoax。 Anyway, it is troublesome to assemble and adjust, so be careful not to lose the screw thread.。Never do it again(Lol)   Also、Because the connection between the lug and the breath is hardly movable、It may not be very kind to thin arms。 The belt fit itself is pretty good。   "It's a perfect match for both black ties and wetsuits," he says.、Personally, I feel that this style would suit me to wear a shirt.。 ……that、Was this slogan another guy?(Lol)

First painting-black clock-

After making a half-black watch in a previous post、 "Maybe all the clocks can be black?"、I also tried to make an experiment to see if I could make a whole body black watch.。   The dial and hands are painted in true and black.。 After blowing Mitchacron on the case side、Finished with black dye spray。 The base is normal 5,、Gives a smooth surface&The dial is changed to block the date display。   Prevents thickening by painting、To improve the bite of paint、The original paint was filed。Wow, I'm sorry ...。     Maybe because there was no painting technique、Even after using it for a few days, you can see the case peeling off (although it may be cool).。 More than anything、In a bright place, you can clearly see that the paint inside the dial is quite rough.。This is definitely an improvement。 I've felt the limits of brush painting、airbrush? I would like to try again when I get something。

Flickering

In a previous post、It's a custom that I came up with when I received a comment from the store manager, "It's fun to assemble a plastic model!"。   A while ago, I was buzzing about "Black Musou" on SNS.、It boasts an absorptivity that makes it possible to lose the three-dimensional effect of anything painted (it seems that it reflects only about 1% of visible light).。 Plastic model-> painting-> try using some amazing black paint! I tried it with an easy-to-associate game called。   Hmmm this is ... I can't see it(Lol)   The needle can be seen with the naked eye in direct sunlight or in a bright room.。 When it's a little dim dusk、Immediately the needle in the left half disappears。   Use image editing to improve the brightness and copy the needle.。The reflection on the glass will also be dangerous, but ...。 When you look at this、The painting of the needle is quite rough。Probably because of neglecting degreasing and undercoating。 The dial is originally a white dial with a three-dimensional effect.、It is interesting that the unevenness is completely invisible。However, the coloring is a little sweet ...。   In terms of "knowing the exact time"、This watch has less than 50 points。(I can't read half of it anyway!)、For example, at the end of work, you may not be able to read the clock as "time you don't have to worry about time in the future."。You will be able to see it again as the last train approaches。 So that you can live like that again、I hope the world will be brighter。

Classic California

It's been a while since I've had a normal five custom。 The base is (probably) everyone's favorite military five SNK800 series。   Is it better to use a large case such as divers to use the California dial? I also felt that、I personally think that a small classic military is also a good feeling.。 I made only big watches (although it seems normal to exceed 40mm these days!)、After all small normal 5 is a feeling of size that is very relieved。     My current problem is that I can't take a good picture of the clock at all ...!

External flavor

I'm in a nest at my house like a junk mansion、I dared to assemble from the beginning without discipline。 It was a mod with various new discoveries。 I like the bezel because it gives a gentler impression to the round than to the flat.、Clean colors like white and blue seem to be my type。 Unfortunately, it ’s a solid bag, not a backpack.、This gentle touch is also likely to be addictive。   Chu 〇-san's specialty is the so-called "squid needle"、Octopus ... Is it the only one who feels a Japanese taste like a kite or a lantern ...? Inspired by YOSHIPI-'s past posts、Glowing dial + skeleton needle It doesn't look as beautiful as the picture、I like it because the hands do not interfere with the dial even during the day。 (In terms of readability, it may fail as a watch ...) Because when it gets hot, clothes become simpler.、It might be helpful to have one such watch。   Postscript: The BAMBI D buckle mounted on this sticks in my wrist ...!(Sob) Please let me know if you have a good double buckle ...!

Assembled from the first time ~ Adventure-kun ~

I bought cheap parts on ebay and assembled them。 It looks like an ordinary R ○ LEX thing、The movement is NH35。   Even if it's just 2mm bigger than the normal five、Limit size for my thin arm。 Choosing NATO with voluminous leather may be one of the reasons why it looks big.。 It may be a good accent when it becomes short sleeves in the summer。   Because it is a crown screwed in front、Even amateurs will be a little more resistant to water。 It was my first time to adjust the winding core,、It goes well, Yokatta ……

Re-Mod SEIKO “Marine” 5

The root of the tongue was also re-moded before it dried。 In the previous mod, SEIKO discovered a problem such as "It is hard to see if the logo or index covers the needle hole". 5 × It is a combination of Breguet needles、Like marlene、I came up with the idea of ​​ensuring visibility by placing luminous paint in the needle holes.。 What was used Phosphorescent paint:Campe Hapio Nuro Luminous Cream Belt:Bambi Silicon Rubber Belt (BG007A) Even if the hour hand covers the SEIKO logo、You can see that the needle hole is not crushed ...? It may not be transmitted in detail。 There was some unevenness in the way it shines,、I will positively think that it is good for the first time。 Also、If you respect the rugspo ...、I tried hairline processing on the side to make the edge of the case stand out。 Sometimes I'm lacking in skill and polishing is rough、The polished part is more prominent than the photo.。 Replaced with a rubber belt for sportiness。 But this might have been a little quick ... It's still cold and I can't let go of my long sleeves。Silicon is easy to get messed up。 I want you to get warm soon。

First mod

Inspired by our predecessors、It's easy, but I tried to change the needle。Breguet needle。 I bought the needle from a person named raffles-time on ebay.。 Other than improved readability during the day、It feels good that the minute and second hands fit perfectly into the index.。 However、If the SEIKO logo or index overlaps the hole of the needle, the readability will be significantly reduced.、I'm thinking of a mod that can solve that problem。 If you come up with a good idea, I will try again。
