Few weeks ago you asked what content we as subscribers want to see. More something like that. Modding ideas and how to do its. Excellent and inspiring video.
what an improvement. I feel that the white dial, was a definite improvement. I would like to see it, w/ the stock bracelet, but I also understand, why you wouldn't want, to repeat the process, if you have no intention of wearing. it I too, do my own watch repairs/modifications. Tedious work, and definitely not, for those who have little patience, or aren't mechanically inclined. Really great presentation, on your part, w/ a step by step breakdown. Very informative, and quite realistic, IMHO. You're a born teacher. Thank you for sharing this process. Seriously, one of the best that I've seen. And I've seen many
Magnificent job, Dan. Your colour choice caused me to shed a patriotic tear (I'm British too - note the spelling of "colour "). As for the finger-johnnies, well.... safe modding, everyone!
The best feeling is when the second hand comes to life after you fit it. Then it is just marry the case and movement, and job done. Great looking watch.
Wow! Impressive mod. I'm not keen on white dials or the hands you chose, but to each their own. I really like that you explained things and went slow. I'm seriously considering building my own watch. 👍🏻
I actually had this video playing in the background as sort of a "white noise" if you will, because I was cleaning my watches. Came back and was blown away with what you did with the Pagani! Brilliant job! I'll need to seat down and do a proper viewing :) Keep it up!
Really nice job mate! Love the color scheme you went with. Beauty of a dial as well. I built myself a DLC SKX with hacking/hand winding, a black ceramic YachtMaster bezel insert and double domed sapphire with AR coating and black SKX hands with an original Seiko SKX007 dial. It's a great sense of accomplishment getting jonny'd up and putting together a nice modded piece. 🤣
I like your spin on the pagani. I have the same model. It's always good to see new color schemes. I agree that the lume and the bracelet are the areas they obviously cut costs. The movement in mine holds +2 /day consistently. Water resistance is great. Thanks to you, I'll be modding mine in the near future.
Great video! I’ve been doing some mods and upgrades on my pd1661 as well. I removed the bezel first because I am not as trusting with acetone and paint. I enjoyed your video and will use it for a parts reference.
Awesome video bro. I enjoyed it, very engaging, informative, and entertaining mod video! Interesting hand and dial combination. I have been watching quite a bit of mod videos, and you have inspired me to start with a pagani, when I come around to starting.
I grew up in Philadelphia so I have a different view of the meaning of the red, white, and blue. But I LOVE the result. Don’t get me wrong. I am almost 60 and I would have had preferred HRM ER II over every POTUS of my lifetime but I prefer Philly cheesesteaks to cod and chips, although those are REALLY good fries you guys make I must admit. I cannot thank you enough for the inspiration. I have the PD Daytona and I am totally going to order this PD and see if I can repeat your red, white, and blue conversion because I think it is stunning.
God bless you, sir. Tears were rolling down both cheeks when you excised that damnable Mercedes hood ornament. Love the new set of hands. Not crazy about the band you chose, but you’re a hero nevertheless. Excited to be a new subscriber.
You can use a plastic bottle cap as a casing cushion. It helps a lot when you’re putting it back in. Plus bottle caps are easy to get. I used one for a year before I bought a proper one. Also you need to do a full 12 hour spin with the hand’s because I have seen issues where an indices hit at 11 o’clock.
Great video! You made it look easy! I've just ordered a pd-1639 and going to attempt modding it. I've gone with Namoki parts.This looks like a clear guide to follow. Thank you.
You can also use grip solvent. Which is non toxic unlike nail polish remover. Grip solvent is used by golfers to remove old grip tape on golf clubs. It’s like water downed version of goo gone.
Dan, very nice mod and I’m glad that you chose a dial with a logo and some information on it because a completely sterile dial would have made it look like a $5.00 watch picked up in a Sunday market. The watch dial would have looked much nicer with minute markers and the hands are quite unusual but nice and I particularly like the trident second hand.
This video makes you really appreciate the price that companies like Pagani charge for their watches. Amazing content, I will think about practicing on some old knock off I've got laying around here before I modify a watch that I actually use on a daily basis.
I totally agree with that thought I have a old Tag copy my son got and while working in the chemical industry the product eat the strap and damaged the case
A cool watch that’s looking even more cool with the red , white and blue modding, and with easy to understand video. Just of to the chemist to see if they have any different colours in their finger jonnies,they say variety is the spice of life. Enjoying your videos keep them coming.
Thank you! It's a great way to learn about how watches are put together, and they get the confidence to make personal changes. A nice way to creatively express yourself
Find it very interesting, building your own watch. Big thank you for sharing. I want to build one, but first I must have a good magnifying scope that I am trying to find. Any ideas?
Has anyone modded the display case back to replace it with a solid stainless steel one? i wonder if the case back is a standard size and could just be swapped out
I bought a PD-1639 recently. I tried using a torch to remove the cyclops but it wouldn't budge. I ended up popping the crystal out of the watch case. Then I tried heating the cyclops some more, and it still would not move an millimeter. I suspect that the newer crystals are made with the cyclops as one piece. So just perhaps a warning for anyone else to try removing it.
Really from a modding standpoint Pagani's are great.. Cheap if you screw up. Solid movement and well finished case with Sapphire. Just change what you want... Very cool idea..
.. I did it! I soaked my Pagani Design in alcohol .. in 15 minutes I managed to get the bezel off .. then I clean off the remaining glue with alcohol-soaked cotton buds .. I am replacing my watch's bezel, chapter ring, dial and hands with the ones that have much better lum .. can't wait to show off my PD Frankentein to my friends lol
WOW! the lume looks like neon! I had a qhite dace blue bezel qatch and it ended in a drawer. It just didn't excite me. I found a nice white bezel and made it "white on white". Now it's one of my favorites! I like whaat yoou have dome, quite American! Cheers. (You know, Red, White & Blue!) Oh, one more thing, WTF is this HATE on the date magnifier. Maybe when your my age, you'll regret removing that.
Excellent question, I would need to measure the standard insert. I think it takes a Seiko skx insert. Been a while since I did one, but have changed inserts before on this model.
Hello Can you please tell me if it is possible to change the crown in any of the Pagani models ? I have an allergy to nickel and purchased pd1692 which I loved but the crown is made of bronze and coated with nickel so it gives me a skin reaction if I wear it for a longer time. I'm thinking of replacing it with a stainless steel one but don't know if it is possible. I'll appreciate any advice. Thank you.
Hi, I would say any crown is replaceable. It would require a bit of research though to know if an aftermarket crown would thread onto the crown tube in the watch. Normally, a watch maker when replacing a crown, would either order a like for like replacement, or have a box of multiple crowns to pick one that works. Hope this helps a bit. Regards, Dan.
@@watchmewithwatches Cool deal and actually i kinda researched stuff because I am anal like that. I wanted to see what fits what when doing mods so I kind of got an idea of why you did it. I am rather intrigued with the entire idea of modding watches. I sure appreciate the reply.
Is there a way to overcome shaky hands? I had a go-round a few years back resulting in an inability to hold my hands steady. I just wondered if there was any hope...
Greetings to the channel. Excellent by the way! Do you have any suggestions for how to fix Phylida Planet Ocean GMT Homage (the screw down crown’s tube that goes in the case kind of detached; dnt know if it broke) It fell off my desk thanks to my dog; I have to disassemble it to see if it broke or it just detached itself from the case; the screw down crown is still screwed to the tube. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks! And keep it up
Shouldnt you remove tge date complication so it doesnt break when manipulating the crown? Just because you can't see it doesnt mean it cant still break and harm the movement.
FIRST OF ALL THE VIDEO IS FANTASTIC! SECOND OF ALL, TO STICK THE BEZEL INSERT I WOULD USE A PRODUCT CALLED GS HYPO CEMENT, CHECK IT OUT. KEEP IT GOING WITH AMAZING VIDEOS! LOVE FROM A 22 YEARS OLD GUY FROM SPAIN!!
Can you please tell me what the diameter of the original 1661 watch face/dial is? I think it is 29mm but I would like to verify before I order parts. Thanks!
There are quite a few sellers of pagani design. I would look for how popular they are and what reviews they have as a seller. I mostly use the official store.
@@christopherstasiak6388 from my experience, the sloped bezel inserts for a sxk007 are the right ones. They are for the 40mm pagani design case size watches with a rotating bezel.
So a 43mm Pagani will accept a 43mm bezel insert? I dont see the two tone gold/silver watch model in 40mm on Aliexpress. But I do see 43mm bezel inserts on eBay.
Good question! I don't actually know I'm afraid. I did have luck with a vostok amphibia smooth bezel. Had to stick it with hypocement. Not sure that would work specifically for this case though.
hello sir, i planning on changing the bezel on this pd1661 to full lume. is there any suggestion on where i could find the full lume bgw9 and what is the measurement size? sorry for asking silly question and wasting your time. have a great day. cheers. :)
Great video man, sorry i am a newbie but my pd 1661s bezel also doesnt line up do you think the dipping it in nail polish remover part would hurt the water resistance?
The problem isn't setting the time, it's changing the day/date when it's in the stage of changing by the watch. Some watches take more time to change the day/date. You can figure that out by changing the time until the day/date is completely changed. You don't want to change the day/date when it's in the stage of changing...I think this is what you're referring to.
Hi, very cool result. I have just even started to consider a mod like this and can’t help but to wonder if you wanted to lose the date window for simplicity or it was not an option in the scheme you wanted? Secondly, I have a very similar Pagni with a slightly different bezel (dished out edges instead of coined) and would like to change out the face and hands for improved loom but nut sure hoe to confirm the face size for parts ordering? Thanks and very well articulated video.
I wouldn’t have opted for your colour choices but it was a great informative video and well worth the watch

Hi Dan, thanks for this tutorial. I plan to try this. Keep up your good work!
Give it a go! It's a fun project. A year ago I wouldn't have even known how to open the back of a watch. Got to start somewhere. Thanks for watching.
That lume shot with those hands was fantastic. The colour combination is awesome!
Excellent video Dan. My Invicta has a few mods in its future now.
I want to see how it works out, find me on watchmecollection on instagram

@@phillipmorgan1614 same as ones for Seiko skx007.

What lug width strap did you buy please?
Enjoyed the journey. I was a bit disappointed that there was no baby tarantula under the glass but fun video nevertheless. Killer dial choice.

Can the chapter ring be changed as well?
anything is possible, but im unsure what ones are compatible for this watch
Shouldnt you remove tge date complication so it doesnt break when manipulating the crown? Just because you can't see it doesnt mean it cant still break and harm the movement.
Not at all. The date wheel moves about under the dial too!

You can order a 28.5mm aftermarket dial (for a seiko skx007) thats what fits this watch. Have fun!
@@watchmewithwatches Thanks for the info. I was thinking about a replica submariner dial. Of course, that might be illegal. :)
@@chefduane3742 you can get dials that are very similar without the wrong logo on it.

Hi. Is the back cover made as one piece with threads, or are the threads welded to the cover?
Hi, the case is the female part and the case back has the male threading.
looks cool, but why get rid of the date complication?
Just fancied a less cluttered dial.
Where did you get that bracelet tool , fed up with the cheap tools breaking.

From Dlw, the bezels they sell (that are sloped) fit. Plenty of choice.
