Very nice build! I gotta say that I do really like the metal bracelet on this watch as well. I would love a VK63 Daytona homage video, for example the one with the sky blue dial and the black bezel!
Great work again Jason! I'm not a big fan of the Santos style but it looks really nice, particularly that beautiful dial. I think it looks good on either strap. As regards to hand setting I've only done two builds so far and found it tricky and a bit stressful. On the second build I almost broke the seconds hand but just about rescued it! I've just got some basic hand pushers and I'll probably try and get some better ones. In the meantime could you give me the approximate size of tip for setting each hand including a gmt? That would be most helpful 😊 Thanks for another great video mate 👍
Thanks mate! Setting the hands gets much easier the more you do it for sure, regarding the tip size, to be honest I have no idea what size my tips are, they are just the ones that came with the press, but to make sure I use the correct size, I just sized each tip up on the movement to see which one would fit each post the best... sorry I couldn't be more helpful!
@jbwatchmods No worries mate, that's a great tip! Actually looking closely at the pinion I can see the three different sections that the hands fit to so I'll carefully size them up before setting. Thanks again mate 👍
Great video and nice build! I’m starting to get into watch building myself I’m just a little confused. Will any movement fit any case or is there a certain way to know if it will or not? Thank you
Hey man, due to your videos i started making watches aswell. Now ive encountered an issue which idk the cause off. I made a watch using the NH34 movement and the first 4 days it all worked fine and now it randomly stops, eventho im wearing it so it has enough movement to wind itself it still seems to stop, then i have to shake it heavily or wind it up by hand. Any idea what it could be? Thanks in advance😊
Cool build:) I was wondering, what dial did you use for the watch in the intro? It says "Bell" something but couldn't find anything online. I really like the look of it, do you by any chance remember where you got it from?
Hey mate, thanks! That's a prototype of one of my own branded dials. You can email me at jb.watchmods@gmail.com if your interested in picking one up :)
This might be a question you’ve answered 1000 times, but what hand press are you using? I have three different ones not including the manual handpress tools and I’m not happy with any of them.
I have a question about date wheel, my mod's date wheel got stuck while in time setting position but it works fine with the quick set position. I looked carefully on the gears and I realize the 24 hour does not fully rotate after I changed the date wheel. Do you have and tips what might be the issue? thank you
Very strange! Hard for me to say without seeing it, but id be pulling it apart and seeing if the date operates correctly with the hands/dial not fitted and go from there
Nice build. Not a fan of the fake gem in the crown, I think a plain crown would look better. Very nice job though - Looks good on the grey FKM - What brand is the FKM strap?
I have ordered watch components from AliExpress,. I will build a seiko 5 GMT, exactly one like seiko blueberry. Lets see how well i do.. Ps i haven't ever even built a lego tower, idk what i will do to a watch
Thanks! I honestly think it all comes down to personal preference and what you like to wear. My partner is a small girl and she rocks a 40mm sub style watch!
What I noticed with all of the available Santos like watch cases on Aliexpress: None of them have sapphire glass or do not mention what they use. You got any idea what type of crystal is on your case? *Edit: I noticed on your website yours has mineral glass

@@andrewd7586 But it is obvious that it refers to Cartier. It's like the word Submariner. It's not a submarine, but you think of Rolex and not watch XY.

Ooh that’s a nice one. Don’t tempt me to build more
haha my bad!
Love that build, it's exactly the kind of style that I was looking for.
Cheers
I never thought tank styled watches looker good until now. Awesome build!
Thanks! I feel the same way haha
Nice job, mate!
Thanks mate :)
Very nice build! I gotta say that I do really like the metal bracelet on this watch as well. I would love a VK63 Daytona homage video, for example the one with the sky blue dial and the black bezel!
Thanks! Yep, Ive got a few VK63 builds on the to do list now :)
brooo!!! Your videos just keep getting better and better! It's so fun to see you grow.
Thanks! Really appreciate it :)
I personally prefer metal bracelet more, big fan of full metal watches :)
Anyway, very cool build!
Cheers! Yeah just comes down to personal preference at the end of the day :)
Looks amazing on both the fkm and the bracelet
Thanks mate!
Great job! Love that channel tbh, just got my first mod :D
Thanks mate!
beautiful
Thanks!
Thats dope!

imo looks better on the bracelet but that my personal opinion. Greta build though
Thanks! Yeah, they both look good I think its just personal preference
I love this mod.
Thanks mate!
Hi Jason great vid, i know this is not everybody's favourite, but have you thought of doing a build with a PT5000 movement?
I haven't thought about that movement yet... I might have to look into it :)
You turned a boring style into a "WOW, I need that!" Awesome build!
Haha thanks mate!
I like the metal Grand Seiko bracelet better, still a nice watch with the rubber one
I don't think that bracelet would be compatible with this case
Great video and nice build! I’m starting to get into watch building myself I’m just a little confused. Will any movement fit any case or is there a certain way to know if it will or not? Thank you
Certain cases are made to suit certain movements. When you purchase your case it will tell you what movements will fit into that case. Good luck!
@jbwatchmods Thank you very much
Hey I love watching your videos, and if you see this, I would really love to see a Rolex sub 16610 build. Thanks!

Great videos bro! Especially the close-ups are fantastic. One technical question. Which camera do you use?
Thanks! Ive got a Nikon Z6III and Nikon ZF
Great job, mate! I just subscribed. I'm eager to make a build video, but the fear of messing it up keeps me procrastinating.😅
Thanks mate! Just jump straight in and do it I reckon! Who cares if you mess it up haha
@jbwatchmods 😂

how were you able to get the custom watch face made with BELL HANDMADE?
I assume when you order watchface, some sellers can add any logo you ask
Ive got dial decals made that I used on this one
@@jbwatchmodsNice! Where did you order them if I may ask? Are you happy with the quality?
how did you get the custom logo, do you message the seller?
I used a custom made dial decal for this dial
Nice build. Not a fan of the fake gem in the crown, I think a plain crown would look better. Very nice job though - Looks good on the grey FKM - What brand is the FKM strap?

Nice, at least your giving it a crack!
Can you make a homage of vintage patek philippe and vintage piaget watches? It would be a change from all the other builds people are posting 👍
I'll have to look into that. Thanks for the idea!
That is a beautiful Watch!! Do you think this would look good on a 6inch wrist, or would it be to big ? Tias
Thanks! I honestly think it all comes down to personal preference and what you like to wear. My partner is a small girl and she rocks a 40mm sub style watch!
More curious how you got those guitars to stand like that with nothing visible….
Its a balancing act, breath on them and they will fall haha
Love your vids, got inspired by you and watchg the vids all the time
do you use a loup and what camera?
Thanks! No I don't use a loup, ive never tried one! I use Nikon Z6III and Nikon ZF
Can you build oris big crown homage
Yeah, ill look into it!
ive made 2 watches and it took me like 30 minutes to get the seconds hand on and you did it in 5 seconds 😂 i need more practice
Haha yeah its just practice!
What I noticed with all of the available Santos like watch cases on Aliexpress: None of them have sapphire glass or do not mention what they use. You got any idea what type of crystal is on your case? *Edit: I noticed on your website yours has mineral glass
Yeah, I noticed the same thing! I don't think they build them with sapphire crystals, I'm guessing due to curvature and shape?

Fake Cartier
If it was a fake Cartier, it would have Cartier on the dial. It’s called a homage. JB is not trying to pass it off as a Cartier. 🥱
@@andrewd7586 Your description says “Santos” and that refers to the Cartier.
Santos style...
The Santos name is not exclusive to Cartier.
