Hey there. Know it’s a long shot since it’s been a few years, but you mentioned you had put a Seiko vh31 movement in it before the mechanical movement. Was the vh31 an exact swap with the original movement?
Turned out great! I considered doing the exact same thing (hand-wind only NH35) using a titanium Seiko quartz case, but found, as you did, that the case back bumped into the rotor shaft and I abandoned the project. Did the movement ring of the NH35 just happen to fit perfectly into that case or did you have to do any fudging there?
Looks sharp! Love that square case and the jet instrument panel look.
This is so god damn cool. Great work my friend!
I really like that... Well done.
Great custom build, the orange strap looks great with the watch. Looks like this watch would go well with a lot of different strap choices.
Very interesting build ...
Awasome! Where you bought this dial?

The nh35 was actually about 1.5mm small so I had to rig up a spacer to fit.
Awesome flieger mod, how did you fit the movement, any mod to de plastic spacer?
Thank you! The NH35 fits but there’s about a 1.5-2mm gap between the case so I made a custom spacer from an old spacer I had lying around.
@@JDLUDE when you say it fit, are you referring to de movement without the spacer?
Correct it will fit in the case but there is a 1.5-2mm gap between the movement and case.
@@JDLUDE and how did you work with the crown?( I'm really tempted to try this out but with an nh71)
The nh35 stem works in this crown so you just have to cut it to size.
Is your friend still doing custom face dials? His insta page is down.
I wanna do kind of a similar project, where did u get the case for the watch?
Namokies mods has them
@@JDLUDE and what bezel did you use since they come without a bezel
I’m unsure why but your channel is very hard to come across with key word searches.
