“I'm planning on building my first NH-38-based watch. But first, I'm going to practice removing and installing hands with this watch. If I can't do it, I won't waste my money on buying all the parts to build my planned watch. I'm basically using this for self-taught class materials. If it works out, I'll probably also replace this watch's non-functioning movement and have a really nice watch out of this as well.
The watch itself appears to me to be flawless, aside from the NH-38 movement not running (as expected from the description).”
“I received a non working islander watch with bracelet. The movement wasn’t working but everything else looked great, it was a perfect practice watch.
Honestly, the dial looked nicer than my MM200 reduced, and it made a great and inexpensive case for my dial/ movement swap.
Mark is a good guy and he makes a good product.”
“I received a watch in the Seiko Samurai style case/bracelet for SKX007 mod parts. As advertised it came with faults, which from what I can tell without opening it there are 3. Firstly a cosmetic problem on the case back, secondly the hour hand is slightly misaligned, thirdly I can’t manually adjust the day/date. I can’t tell if the winding is working yet, it’s quiet when I turn it, so perhaps an issue with the crown stem or the mechanism related to point 3, however the movement does work so I expect to be able to fix this myself. The rest of the parts are great quality and I think maybe a purple AR sapphire crystal. All in all amazing value for a modder like myself to either fix or use the parts for other projects. 7 day delivery to the UK, very happy thank you.”
