Beautiful build my friend! I am planning to do some of these soon and this was very helpful. Cheers!

Nice one mate👌

Great work, very inspiring! I started moding from your videos! Could you put the link of the other video that you release the crown and do you have any tip in the case the minute and hours hand are missalinged is there a quick fix or all tha hands need to come off?

Thank you for watching my videos 😊 Yes, unfortunately, you will have to remove all 3 hands to align them properly again. But it's a good thing! More practice makes it easier next time😁😁

That second hand timing would drive me insane

The dial at the 3 o'clock is supposed to be a 24hr, but you can't set it independently so it's really only telling you am/pm and that's only if you align it with the midnight setting. Hence it's useless as a gmt. That would be my biggest knock against this movement - built for looks over function.

It can still function as a static GMT if you set that X amount of hours ahead of the main hour hand when building the watch, you'll never be able to change it without opening it up and re-setting that hand manually but it can be used as a functional 2nd timezone

I picked up a pagani black case with yellow chronograph hand and two sub dials with yellow hands, this pagani has sorta like a skeletontinized dial, showing the quartz movement which kinda weird , a have a dial which I’m swapping , sorta like the green dial, the one I have is black like a speedmaster,

I got it on the local website, but there are plenty on Aliexpress as well. Just search "VK63 dial"

Did you short-circuit the movement when you inserted the battery or just insert battery and move on?

I just inserted the battery and it was good to go

hi! noob question. i bought a pagani with a vk63 and the seconds hand (chono hand) is a hair to the left. do i need to take the hand off and reattach it or can i push it a little without taking it off? will it affect the other hands if i do? thanks

This chrono hand is a headache in my experience... 1st, it can be worn out if you remove it and try to put it back. I would suggest you get another set of hands just in case. Just pushing the hand won't do, you have to remove it. If you have some kind of curved tweezers, then maybe you will manage to remove only seconds hand, but if no then you need to remove them all🥲

I want to build a watch with the vk63, but the cases available are to small for my taste. can I fit the VK movement in a case for a nh35 series?

You will need a custom movement spacer and the dial I guess

Do you mean the chronograph seconds hand? I guess the tip could touch the glass. Check it from the side to see the alignment with other hands👍😉

Where did you buy that dial? All the dials I find are blank and don’t have the writing in them

I don't remember exact number, but I've noticed there are 2 sizes (or more) for the same movement and the same case, and both sizes fit my case. Have you tried yours yet?

@@ShortBetter I meant alignment. Just when you think that it is aligned, you have to pop the hand back off to try aligning it. The problem comes when you try at least 4 times of mounting and removing the hand, that the hand barrel wears out, and the seconds hand will fly off into the dial when resetting the chrono.
