APjumbo 3,039 Posted June 9, 2022 @Darkstar5 This is such a cool build. Where did you find this dial? Is it a custom made dial? I haven’t seen any like this. 28.5mm in a 36mm case? I am hunting for a 30.5-31.5mm Seiko datejust dial. I have Seiko logos but need a cool dial to work with. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkstar5 728 Posted June 9, 2022 Thanks @APjumbo ! It's a 28.5mm Ali express dial. Fantastic quality, I'm really impressed with it! Tons of options too. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mKzblbG The case is a 36mm from luciusatelier.com. Great quality. There are cheaper options out there though. Movement is a NH35, fits the case perfectly. Hands are just Ali express OP stick hands. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
APjumbo 3,039 Posted June 9, 2022 I appreciate the link. I have one of those in green but it doesn’t have the oyster perpetual print on it. Your looks way nicer with the extra text on the dial. I also found these clear organizers at the dollar store for a couple bucks that have been working great to store movements, dials, ect. I picked up a few and store tools in the others to make it easy to set up a work station. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkstar5 728 Posted June 9, 2022 I could use one of those. My workstation is a disaster! I saw one of these "Explorer" Seiko dials on Instagram account and spent a good week trying to track them down. Google lens finally did the trick! I got one in green and grey too incase I feel like switching them up. I need to find better hands though, the like on these is shit compared to the dial lume.

Looks fab, is the dial blue or just window refection. Sorry for OP @Darkstar5 Edited June 9, 2022 by CollieWobbles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
