Thanks for the Inquiry, those are store bought hands from ofrei, but I have figured out the paint and how to do it with my airbrush.

Thanks but not selling dials

Not many options out there other than Chinese parnis, bleiger, and other silly names made to see if people will purchase just anything. I have found my own solution to this issue in a personal quest to bypass these dial Manufacturers and I have achieved it. Made in CHICAGO

These are not decals and they are a very tricky process by airbrush and other methods. I’m just happy I don’t have to go purchase a $5000 IWC because I can make my own with a trademark name.

It’s coming together looks amazing for a homemade dial

If this next attempt fails then the procedure you explained will be my next option. Thanks

I find it better to apply with a watch repair screwdriver and not the oilers. The right mixture is my issue. The cheaper water based lume applies much better than the more expensive lume.

I’m working on the hands for the pilot watch I’m building. 5 attempts to apply lume and has proven to be difficult. The airbrush gives me good professional results but the lume is a challenge.

Handmade

These are 33.5mm handmade and are for a Valjoux 7750 modified with only second hand subdial oversized. Can make them for any caliber And any size to fit all my watches. No more Chinese dials that look silly and only one size to choose from. Trying to achieve this watch let’s see if I can do it

This is a project I have been working on for 2 days and now I think I have it down. Turned out fantastic. What do you think?

I flipped all my watches and this is all I have left. The 2 watch collection

Good luck on that build

No love for the this Bigeye beauty?

Why pay $5,000 for a watch when you can make your own
