Service was fantastic, shipping was quick, and the case, dial, and hands worked out great for this build.
This case is very chunky and very heavy, great finish, exactly what was needed for this build.
Yes, the minute track can be slightly misaligned sometimes, I don't really notice it. For me, the best vintage Chrono case on the market currently. One of the very few that don't have the external (Speedy/Daytona Style) Tachy Bezel!
I love how the build came out. The bezel insert and dial are the usual Namoki high quality. I repurposed an old fathoms case and popped in an NH34 from another old watch. I'm a big fan of Namoki Mods!
This was my first case and as it turns out, its been my best build. The challenge has turned out to be beating this one and its more of a challenge than I expected. The case looked great but I decided it needed a little further polishing (as shown). It weighs about negative 36 grams. Its stupid light. Great for any season. Planning to make my own dials and build one in black.
Needed something to test a black day & white date wheel. It turned out better than expected.
Perfect fit for my SRPE05. I had a crown from CrystalTimes that also had three gaskets, but the crown was taller than the OEM crown and I’m not sure the gasket inside the crown body was making contact with the stem tube. This crown is the same height as the OEM crown, so I’m more confident that it’s making contact and actually creating a proper seal. Secured it with B7000 and allowed to to cure in front of a fan for 24 hrs.
This case offers interesting, unique and retro vibes options for dive watch builds.
