Hey bro, just wanna say that I really enjoyed this video! The watch looks great, I’d call it “washed denim” as the dial reminds me of my favourite denim jacket that has faded over the years. Appreciate you bro, thanks for the cool vid!
Ignore the hater and the so called critics, it looks good and at the end of the day it’s just a watch no matter how costly or inexpensive it is as long as it can tell the time and is satisfactory to you then all is well. Great job man
@edmerpaulubongen9514 yeah don't worry, I'm not butthurt, just find it interesting how people have to comment so much negativity when it's just a watch hahaha it's not that deep! Thank you for watching and I appreciate the comment my friend!
With the seconds hand, I recommend getting right down to eye level with the movement so you can see the pinion. It helps me tremendously when installing the seconds hand.
Great watch great build! I recently built my first watch (Yatch Master 2 Homage) it took me around 3 hours as well and the same issue with the second hand took the longest to do. The amount of words that flew around the room and minor rage quits I got it on. One thing I will say that I wasnt aware of the NH35 has a little cap to protect the second hands stem that needs to be removed, I didn't realise until something small fell off and when I tried to set it again it went straight on. I hope that helps someone here.
A good tip I was shown is when you’re ready to install the second hand press the crown in and get it running. I use rodico to hold the hand some use tweezers rest it on the pinion if the hand moves around you know you got it on then use the hand press to fit it
I recently also completed my very first watch build. If you're planning to do more of those I recommend a movement holder to keep any unnecessary pressure off of the movement when pressing in the hands. If you have access to a 3d printer it's pretty easy to print one of those.
Nice work, nice vid. I’ve done several so I’d like to add a couple pointers, but first, don’t feel bad, the seconds hand is the hardest by far! 1) Make sure all the hands are parallel to the dial and each other. (2) This method will not make a watch that is actually water tight do be careful (if you don’t believe me but it in a glass of water for a while and see, realize there’s no pressure there). (3) Change your rodico often, it gets dirty/greasy and can make a mess. (4) Clean, clean, clean, the dial and inside the crystal often and clean them again before you close it up. It’s very frustrating when you’ve spent hours on a build and close it up only to find the one crappy piece of lint on the face or underside of the crystal. 😊
thanks for the pointers. what can I do to water tight to prevent water entering into the dial? and ofcourse, I did clean the dial often I think I just didn't mention it enough! thank you for the tips I found them very helpful
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the MAMACOO, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
I absolutely love watches, the high end watch brands are out of my budget but the AMZWATCH has literally an almost duplicate of every single watch on the market . Always a great but no matter your budget.
My favorite 2024 is the Prospex Limited Edition 1965 Recreation European Exclusive in Gradation Island Blue. The dial is stunning and the contrast when on a white strap is to die for. I will get my hands on one from AMZWATCH
great job building this watch, its looking decent, i liked the fluted bezel. one day when you're able to appreciate the quality of a grand seiko you will understand why its so embarassing to see a gs logo on your custom built watch.
Watch are the ultimate Men's accesories！Enjoyed watching your collection. Keep going！As a watch enthusiast and watch reviewer, I can say MAMACOO this was a great choice. Enjoyed your video!
Great build man!! it looks stunning.. i had the problem with the hands clashing with each other.. had to open and aligned and scratching the dials and hands haha.. decided to leave the scratches as a momento that it was my 1st watch build.. will build a new one with better skills haha.. how bout building a GMT next? hehe
I really like one of the 31mm dials, seller says it would fit 40mm, is it possible? Did you have any experience as such? Thank you for this great video by the way!
@ thank you for your quick reply! Will try my best with 28.5 and 40mm case, I am hoping that they would fit. All the cases seem to accommodate mostly 28.5, it’s really difficult to find a case that fits above 28.5 on internet.
Hey Koto, it looks pretty neet, Congrats!! I'll love to make my own sterile piece but didnt find yet a case under 12mm to fit in a NH movement. Drop me a pill to choose one under 12mm for my vintage thin king seiko 1970s style watch. ❤
I am not really a watch guy, but I saw this interesting Daytona chronograph design, where they have transparent only three small chronograph dials. I wonder is it even possible to find a dial like that?
hello sir, cool mod! really like it. love that hands set a lot! hope to see more videos like this. any chances on vh31 movement watch build near future perhaps. 👍😍🔥
@@GodTierWatches22 i do hope it will become true from your channel. all the best sir! i'm planning on doing it too, but still waiting all the parts to arrived.
You know you just made a fake. LOL it looks great!!!! I just completed my first watch build a few months ago and the seconds hand was a bitch. It to me 45 minutes to get it on and yes I broke one. That tiffany blue dial is stunning.
i wanted a sterile dial 😪 its okay, my next build will be sterile, the seconds hand don't want to budge until you have a tantrum and come back afterwards haha! thank you for watching
Decent job for a first timer. Next time you may want to exercise more discipline not to touch around even with your finger gloves on. You can smear dirt and grease onto the dial from those as well. Replace the finger glove when it's dirty.
How does the quality of the parts compare to watches from aliexpress, like a San Martin? Do those companies use these kind of parts or are they not up to the same quality of the brands?
@danieljennings9015 I would say the level of finishing for the parts is less than san martin, the case feels not the best and would need to purchase the best. the bracelet feels a bit sharp however, as far as the dial, hands and movement goes, it's the same I would say
I have “real” watches and a lot of them. I have a friend who buys the AMZWATCH we put them side by side and guess what ?! It’s unbelievable!!! I am at the Rolex boutique with her and no one can tell he has a fake
AliExpress accepts returns, so you really didn't need to build it using a fake GS dial. There are literally dozens of other dials to pick. Just saying...
Definitely the most interesting & informative channel in TH-cam，and I am your fan！ I’ve been watching MAMACOO and buying them recently to complement my watch collection. Good video
I love the idea building an homage watch but i give off the wrong feeling when you put a counterfeit dial with a brand on it. Especially one as coveted as GS. It kinda of seems like wearing an expensive watch just so people will think you are cool. Again, I love homage builds, but this seems more like trying to get something cheap and passing it off as expensive.
Looks cheap, especially the fluted bezel. When it is too shiny, it doesn't look luxurious at all. I get it why people to this. They don't have the money to buy the real thing and the joy and pride that it brings in building their own watch, but at the end of the day, it is a fake and you're just kidding yourself and others! Believe me you'll get a lot more satisfaction and pride wearing the real deal by buying a 250$ Seiko watch even in quartz, with a shitty bracelet and hardlex crystal but at least you know it is a real not a fake! Cheating will end up screwing your mind.
@cougarbatterie I appreciate your honesty mate, I agree the shininess adds a bit of tackiness but I honestly like the overall build. what matters for a watch is what it means to you, no one else cares. let alone regular people don't care. it's just a piece that should only solely matter to you. you buy it and make it because you like it. just be true to who you are and what alligns with you. I wouldn't ever buy an outright fake because that doesn't allign with me, by building it adds a memory and value to me and I just don't treat it the same as a fake :) wear what you want at the end of the day man, your opinion is your opinion
@cougarbatterie honestly mate it's not a justification I'm happy with it man, I couldn't care less about what you think. If you don't like the build, keep moving about your day. It's not a major deal. I also mentioned that I didn't know there would be a gs logo on it. I don't wear it as a joy and pride as a grand seiko because it's not. it's just a watch build. I post videos because I share my experience and there are people who enjoy the content. if you don't enjoy it, please be my guest and you don't have to watch the videos. I will enjoy the build thank you, hope you have a good day 👍
Seriously. If you’ve got nothing of value to add to the world keep your gob shut. Man is sharing his hobby and putting himself out there. Who took the jam out of your doughnut?
@@GodTierWatches22 You don't have to justify anything, brother. It's your watch, you built it. People are worried about aliexpress nh35 kitbashes looking too much like their $4000 watch. I own "total super legit expensive watches" and lookalikes that I've built. All of it is fun. Anyone that knows anything isn't gonna think that your ali watch is an actual GS. Or a Rolex. Or a Tissot. Wear what you like, if you can't afford what you like, build it. Will it measure up to the real thing? Who knows. But I can guarantee that half the people who get buttmad about this sort of thing have a print of a famous artpiece in their home. I find that a lot of people transition from these to the real thing after wearing it long enough to really love it. Every fireman got started as a child dressing as a fireman for Halloween.

With the seconds hand, I recommend getting right down to eye level with the movement so you can see the pinion. It helps me tremendously when installing the seconds hand.
yeah after I had to reinstall the hands I had a much better time and just used rotico and the hand press tool and worked like a charm!

Brilliant video for anyone wanting to start there first build. Keep up the good work!
thank you Ed!
Outstanding video.I have to go with the MAMACOO, especially with that green dial as my favorite
Looks amazing man! All parts match really well together and the blue watch dial color is amazing!

Really good work ..... Congratulations, lovely looking watch
Loved it. Appreciate your efforts brother.
Love your channel with so many stellar watches! For me the MAMACOO’ watch is my favorite. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
great work bro ❤️💯👊🏻⌚️
That dial looks great. What to search to find a similar sterile one? Can't seem to find one that that good looking in ali
Good job! Congrats looks great.
thanks !!!
Well done Koto.
Kota* but thank you!
You did amazing 🤩 👏
@@herbrodriguez7299 thanks for watching and can't wait to build another sometime soon!
great job building this watch, its looking decent, i liked the fluted bezel.

oh don't get me wrong I would rather a sterile or just seiko dial, ive put a grand seiko on before, it was amazing

damn nice bro!
Great build man!! it looks stunning.. i had the problem with the hands clashing with each other.. had to open and aligned and scratching the dials and hands haha.. decided to leave the scratches as a momento that it was my 1st watch build.. will build a new one with better skills haha.. how bout building a GMT next? hehe
yeah you just have to make sure they are alligned straight and don't scratch against each other. possibly a gmt or a diver!
I really like one of the 31mm dials, seller says it would fit 40mm, is it possible? Did you have any experience as such? Thank you for this great video by the way!
@ErayErtugrul09 31mm dial would be tough... I've never had any experience with them but 28.5mm fit my 36mm. time to ask reddit!
@ thank you for your quick reply! Will try my best with 28.5 and 40mm case, I am hoping that they would fit. All the cases seem to accommodate mostly 28.5, it’s really difficult to find a case that fits above 28.5 on internet.

Guys,put the seconds hand looking from the side and not from the top, that way you will install it in a minute 👌
Chinatown pram out to destroy the watch market too xD
Hey Koto, it looks pretty neet, Congrats!! I'll love to make my own sterile piece but didnt find yet a case under 12mm to fit in a NH movement. Drop me a pill to choose one under 12mm for my vintage thin king seiko 1970s style watch. ❤
Hi! Thanks for watching, i think this case is really nice for your build! Good luck!

Looks great but GS watches have a very recognizable spring drive so it is immediately apparent that something is off.
@brakmaster not all gs have a spring drive but I wish I didn't get a logo :(
GS are not only spring drive, some are also hi-beat just as written on this aliexpress dial.
I am not really a watch guy, but I saw this interesting Daytona chronograph design, where they have transparent only three small chronograph dials. I wonder is it even possible to find a dial like that?

Watches are so delicate and intricately designed, so I have intense respect and admiration for MAMACOO watch makers
Luckiest guy getting a bootleg GS dial.
people that won't know think you own a $6000 watch now.
I'm jealous of you hahah
@FlemishW hahaha there are surprisingly some gs dials on aliexpress jsut rare. I didn't intend to get the gs logo
@@GodTierWatches22 they took it offline due to obvious illegality.
just lucky you got it before they took it down, or the customs destroying it.
@@FlemishW yeah 😆
No, because people who know something about watches know it's not GS. And people who know nothing about watches, they just don't care.
Ngl you probably should have went with a 34mm case size.
there was only a 36mm or a 40mm for the one I was looking for!
awesome video, i just think the music is too loud
noted!
Ever since I bought a watch from MAMACOO, My question is if it's this hard to tell them apart, what is the point of owning an authentic watch?
How much in total did you spend on the watch parts itself?
New friend here sending may full suppor AMZWATCH 's watch，Worth
Please share another link to a GS dial 🙏🙏🙏
the seller has unlisted the dial I mentioned, I have linked other dials I recommended! try this one s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mOy6VvS
I like the watch I got from MAMACOO. That rubber strap combo looks really cool! Been wearing it since last year and love every minute of it.
I would love to build a watch myself, but I can not be bothered to get a girlfriend.
luckily, a girlfriend is not required, just some steady hands 👌🤣

@@ivoshandor6859unfortunately the mod community are petty like this, can’t let other enjoy their own build, snobbery I guess
Have you tried returning to ali. Forget about getting anything back.
He’s not trying to sell it as a seiko, so shut your pie hole
bro how much did it cost?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? you never said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it costed 130 AUD with the watch parts alone, 160 with parts sorry!
