JohnG 41 Posted October 8, 2009 These are for a project watch, not the Illinois Radiomir, for another one, keeping the rest of the watch a surprise for now but these came out so well that I thought I would post a pic..... The seconds hand will not be used, a seconds-only dial, but I put it in there for comparison/before-after effect. Demsey says they look kind of old, I should buy some new ones.

JohnG 41 Posted October 8, 2009 How are the hole sizes, do they need modding? For you, they won't need modding. :rofl: How do you mod the hole sizes in the hands? There is a lip on the bottom that (I seem to recall reading) you can push towards the center of the hole in order to make the hole smaller. Making it bigger is simpler - just stick force something larger than Sconey's winkie in there, like the tip of an ice pick... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
