Got yourself a new sub haha. The result is absolutely amazing! I appreciate the time and effort that you put into making the piece. Solid video cheers mate!
Fun video. While I personally would not be comfortable wearing an homage or copy, it's still entertaining to see how this watch was produced. Your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorite watch channels on RUclips. Really enjoy your style and production value!
patience and fine motors skills are probably in the top 5 of my weaknesses. Yet (or because of that?) i am very, very tempted to start modding watches. Probably gonna start with something easyer, like the Casio “royal oak”. (just taking of the clasp, open 4 screws, rescrew them). Saved this video for later.
I would say that this is more reminiscent of the Vacheron Constantine Overseas 4500V / 110A - B128 than a Patek Philippe Nautilus to be totally honest. Saying that it is a nice job you done there looks really good. 👍
I'm curious, if I left the 7s26 movement in there, will the "Nautalida" dial work on the 7s26 date wheel? Will the "day" side lineup with the "day only" date window?
Hello, I think you had the problem with the caseback because you left the new movement in the original plastic holder (the grey one). For a good fit you should switch the plastic holder - so put the black plastic holder from the 7S26 movement on the new movement. It should do the trick.
On some of my replica watches, extra complications like a date when the watch dial doesn't have a date window, doesn't make a difference. So why did you swap the movement out? Couldn't you just use the same movement and put the new dial on there? Or is there a fit issue?
Dear sir what is your suggestion regarding buying a patek replica that resembles more than this modified watch ? I guess that works fine too dear sir. Same sunburst dial and hands and shape is more alike
Hey; I’ve just bought the snkk52 and am looking to upgrade the movement to the nh35 and replace the dial too. The dial I want i can only find in 31mm. Will this still fit or do I have to stick to 28.5mm dials for this case and movement? Thank you
Hey! You inspired me to do this exact mod!! Finally got my hands on an SNKK59 for a good price and I purchased these exact parts! I’m going to have it modded by a local seiko watch shop but I wanted to know if having to cut the stem and sanding down the case back is something I’d have to let them know before hand? Or is it something that’s typical when installing new movements etc? Really appreciate you bro!!
Hello, just a question please do the dial/hands Yobokies feet on the original movement of the watch ? Or it's obligate to change the movement for the NH35? Many thanks for the answer !!!!
@@WatchCrunchOfficial i wouldn t know how that s why i said i m a little off. It has good specs, saphire, pt 5000, stainless steel integrated, ar coating and lume but i dont have experience with watches to compare it to. Especially if we talk fine touches like brushing and dial details. The model name is Model: SN076-G. All the best !

Super excited on this build! Just purchased the dial and hands. Really nice project!
Hi by any chance do you have the original dials and hands for sale ?

Thanks Pete, you are quickly becoming one of my favorite commenters 😉
love your videos! keep up the good work.
Thanks a million 🙏
Great job dude. Looks amazing
@@WatchCrunchOfficial you nailed it. Thanks to you I've spent the last hour hunting the web for a SNKK59. 😆
Quality of your videos is top notch. Should have more subs:)
Appreciate that Nick! We are just finishing up year one, more to come :)
Looks awesome 👏
Reminds a little of the concord mariner 👌
I can afford any watch; the $1000,000.00 question is, should I wear something like a Patek on my wrist?

Yes, start small and cheap... who knows where you might end up! It's easier than it looks 👍
@@WatchCrunchOfficial thanks for the motivation. I know it will be a humbling experience (at least in the beginning). But that’s part of the process.
I'm buying shares when you start a watch making company 👍
Haha, IPO soon 😉
Amazing piece and work! May I ask if you by any chance do commissions?

what's the bracelet? or could you provide a link for the bracelet?
Awesome vid and build video !!!
Great video. I'm going to Mod my Casio into a Timex.
I'm curious, if I left the 7s26 movement in there, will the "Nautalida" dial work on the 7s26 date wheel? Will the "day" side lineup with the "day only" date window?
Yes, it will
Why remove the stem? 7S26 stems work fine with the NH35s. They're almost the same patent.
Do modifications on a timepiece increase/decrease its value? Just curious. Especially on the top tier swiss brands.
Typically decrease. Which is why people tend to mod cheaper watches... Unless you are a rapper
wow, you are a master!
Thanks Dmitry 👍
Nice! You earned a new sub!
That was cool. How do you know what length the stem has to be? Or does it not have to be exact and can be ball parked?
So that's a standard Seiko case?
Most Seiko Nautilus Mods I've see use the Namokimods 926/935 case.
excelent job
Very nicely done. I do like seiko. The nh35 is bulletproof.
Yeah they put that movement in everything!
Awesome video! FYI, switch to 4k during the watch building to see ultimate detail!
found this bonus episode ;-) ruclips.net/video/bhRqIhHZkmk/видео.html

Exactly, I realized this after the fact and put a note in the the description. Learning on the go 😋. Thanks for the heads up!
Just looks wise I prefer this over the original patek. No joke
wow!
Cool and interesting
Thank you!
That's beautiful. I just want to ask why you changed the movement? Is the NH35 better than the stock 7s26? I also plan on doing this on my snkk47.
Yes, the NH35 has hacking and handwinding! It's worth it
Hi do you have the original Dial and hands for sale ?
So… I’m interested. Do you make these to sell to others?? If so, can you put sapphire crystal on both sides? Along with the clasp upgrade?
On some of my replica watches, extra complications like a date when the watch dial doesn't have a date window, doesn't make a difference. So why did you swap the movement out? Couldn't you just use the same movement and put the new dial on there? Or is there a fit issue?
The new movement offers hacking and hand winding 👍
This is very nice.. We don't need to change movement if we don't want to, right? We can just use the original movement and just change the dial?

Thank you
I believe pretty much all Seiko cases use 28.5mm dials
This is sick. I love this watch a lot but no longer available.
Saw one for sale on watch exchange today for 220 👍
I would like a mod like that with my 70s Longines.
Go for it! you can find so many Seiko parts on the internet
amazing stuff brother, here have a sub. i'd love if you post every couple of days.
Retro watch mate just my humble opinion and ask! Thank you and keep up the good work. Having a day job and doing this in your own time must be taxing.

Thanks Michael, I'll hit you back on Instagram!
Why have I not seen this vid before Max!
Great job.
Hello, any idea the size details of the crystal? Or is there a sapphire crystal replacement?
Sorry I'm not sure on that one. I would check with Crystal time
Hello, just a question please
do the dial/hands Yobokies feet on the original movement of the watch ? Or it's obligate to change the movement for the NH35?
Many thanks for the answer !!!!
No, they will fit the original seiko movement as well!
@@WatchCrunchOfficial many thanks !!!! ;-)
Guys i know i might be off here but i saw a San Martin on ali express for 300 bucs with great specs that is a nutilus omage. It s gorgeous
Might be a good option, let us know the build quality if you get one!

Cool mod👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks ✌️
Beauty of a watch. Would pay good money for this lol
Thanks! It belongs with a friend now 👍
I have one for sale let me know if you still need one
Honestly just buy a good rep, Patek Philippe doesn't care about poor people and neither should we care about them.
That's one rightful suggestion. 👍
hi there tell me something , its working without lose minute?>
works great!
Where did you source the case tho?
Found one on eBay
Kyle Leung I have one for sale. Lmk if you still looking
Bu muhteşem saati almak istiyorum 😢
Naw Tilda or Naughty Lida?
Not seen that 5 model available for long time
Yeah it's been long discontinued.
I have one for sale lmk if you want
Okay Max, Where do I send you the money for one?
LOL, this one is gone, but plenty of other builds available on Hauteones.shop
@@WatchCrunchOfficial do you still have the original dials and hands ?
If you can find a better bracelet one without the folder links it would make it so much more comfortable.
I agree, haven't attempted to replace the clasps before... Maybe a future project
I own an snkk 47 k1. The bracelet is the problem of this watch. Besides the case and dial looks great, the bracelet looks so cheap.
Especially the endlinks and the clasp.. Pretty janky, but then again, your money is not paying for the bracelet at that price.
A franken Nautilus... you Nauty boy! 😁😁😁 naughty spelled wrong on purpose people...🤣🤣🤣
So do you want a Nautilus even more now?
The watch look like vacheron constantin overseas
Yeah, that octagonal shape is pervasive in the watch industry at this point. I like it
If they had a black dial with gold that would be super nice on the gold version!
Ooo, now you have my attention ;)
@@WatchCrunchOfficial you never know what if they decide to do it!! Overall great video!! I enjoyed it a lot!!
Plot twist. Can't afford even this anymore.
Nooooo 🤪
I have one for sale let me know if you still need one
@@ivdee I'm interested. Can you send me more information via Instagram?
le nouveau boitier nautilus est plus beau que celui ci
the crown is 2 big and ruins the whole symetry
very well done. i have a upcoming mod that i’m looking to do. i’ll follow you on ig @watchoutforshoes
Can you build me one . I’d pay !!
Haha, thanks but someone beat you to it!
I have one for sale
I really don't get the Patek brand I think their watches are ugly.
Haha, you just saved yourself a hundred grand 😉
It's revolting to me how expensive the Patek Phillippe nautilus is and the reasons behind why it's so expensive
Somebody call Aurel Bacs lol nice watch
Haha, leave the loupe at home
