@@ranjankc121 the polarized film has a sticky side so it just got sticked on the LCD, I did the same mod on my cousin's f91w but this time I stick the polarized film on the actual watch housing (inside the plastic cover of the LCD) this because you don't need to cut so precise the sheet for the screen and you avoid the risk of damage the screen, if I got time I'm going to make an actualization of the video and anything you want to ask me just write a comment..... Thanks for watching the video!!
Thank you for watching and comment the video, and what do you mean, how old is this watch? If that's the question and if I'm not mistaken I have this watch for about 7 or 9 years and if it looks in good shape that's because I restore the housing and the plastic screen protector using nothing but fine grade sand paper and polishing compound like the one that is used on car's paint, to gave it a clear finish that's why the edge of the plastic screen protector is rounded, hope have you enjoyed the video and if you have any other question let me know!!!!
Con mucho cuidado y puedes ayudarte con una tarjeta plástica para sacar las que queden, otra opción es en lugar de pegarlo en la pantalla del reloj es pegarlo en la Mica plástica pero por dentro de la carcasa
@@diyit6725 justo acabo de terminarlo, lo hice con una pantalla LED que no funcionaba, mi Casio w218 quedó como dicen aquí con madres, pero el problema es la luz ya que no es muy tenue ay que tener eso encuentra...aún así me gusta más en negativo.....gracias
Hi Diego I used regular scotch tape, the clear one, and if you speak Spanish, use cinta transparente, el secreto está en despegar rápido una tira larga para que quede sin ninguna marca y que le cinta sea más gruesa que el tamaño del filtro, if you don't speak Spanish just translate the text above, thanks for watching and comment
Hi Giovanni thanks for watching and comment, to polish the screen I used fine grit sandpaper (400 to 2500) until I removed deep scratches and finish with car's paint polish compound (also known as scratch remover) until it got that glossy finish. Hope this help you and let me know if you have more questions!
@@guandasin3099 depending the polish you use, some leave a protective film that repeals oil and water but the plastic is not scratch proof you only need to be careful with the screen like in a brand new Casio
Yeah I think Casio makes some inverted screen g shock but they are way more expensive, this is like the cheap easy solution if you want a watch with more style, I invite you to mod your Casio it is a very good experience and it's a cheap watch if you messed it up you can buy another one, only get the polarized filter from any one screen (phone, screen, TV, another digital watch, even I think you can find it in photography stores, hope you have a good mode and thanks for watching the video!!!
They do it on some of their watches from the factory. It doesn't increase how much it costs them to make the watch because they're literally using the same exact polarizing film only they rotate it 90° to get the negative effect, but they do charge extra for it. I forget which model it was that I saw it on, I want to say it was the W218, but it was brand new, in the box at Walmart on one of their budget watch shelves for $20-$25. Don't quote me on the model number because I could be wrong, but it was definitely at Walmart and it wasn't one of the models that the keep locked up. This watch was out in the open where anyone could just pick it up, toss it into their shopping cart, continue on with the rest of their shopping, and check out at the regular registers at the front of the store. I know for sure it was a full digital, could have been either black or gray, had a square case, and it was a little larger than the F-91.
Estoy por aventarme a hacer una modificación así, pero en un G Shock. La única cosa que preocupa es la parte de despegar el filme polarizado del LCD, ¿alguna recomendación?, ¿ayudaría en algo usar pinzas o sería más fácil con los dedos?
Yo usaría alcohol isopropílico para aflojar el pegamento y tener mucha paciencia. Si se pueden utilizar pinzas como de punta fina solo tener cuidado de no jalar muy fuerte para romper el cristal y tener cuidado de no rayarlo
giacomo sena hi, first of all thanks for watching and comment the video, I think you can buy the polarized film only on internet, or the cheapest way is finding any LCD screen from any broken device such old cellphones, old LCD screen, old laptops even calculators have the polarized film, you can find some videos here in TH-cam that shows you how to get polarized film from laptops screens, or the other option is buying one from internet, hope this information help you and have a good modding, any other question you can write a comment here. Thanks!!!!!!!
Hi, I used fine grit sandpaper that is commonly used for car polishing or body repair mainly 600, 1000 ,2000 grit and also car polishing or swirl remover to make it shinier
@@diyit6725 yea, i replaced battery. Luckily after laying on the table for a while, screen started to work normally. Assembled the watch, works fine. But while the screen was still messed up, i wanted to assembly it, when i closed the back plate, the watch started giving me "ticking" sound, and the sound itself from the pressing buttons was working, but it was weirdly screeching. Now everything works fine, but i wonder what was that. Maybe i was lucky and i almost killed my watch?...
@@KeanoMUFC1 it's normal to happen, some times when you replace the battery the circuit ran out of energy and all the data (time, date, alarms) get lost, and when you put a new battery it kind of restart all the circuit process, and there are two ways to solve it one is just waiting almost like 10 min and the other way is resetting the clock by making a bridge between the reset gold contact on the front face marked as AC and an arrow, and the back metal plate, thanks God you're Casio was in this state and not broken, btw hope your Casio ended in a good modes f91w and give you 10 years more of service!
@@diyit6725 thanks a lot, actually my model is F-105, but i was curious about this video, maybe i'll try the same trick with polarizer on my model but i don't know if it's possible and i was kinda scared to mess with the watch after what happened with the screen.
A good place to get polarized film is from the 3D glasses they give at the movies.
Thanks for the info, I didn't know that, I think it will be easier to get from the glasses
Great advice. Did it with the 3D glasses but now it's pretty dark and hardly readable.
Casio f91w .best watch ever!! Good job PAL!! I Like it just the Way it is though
Hi..love the work you did to your F91W. It has transformed into new 91w which is still yet to come into market.
Thank you ranjan chatterjee, it was a lot of fun to do this mod
I have 1 question.. after you place the polarized screen did you paste it or just kept it over the watch screen?

how did you attach the new polarized film to the module?
what you used to paste the new film?

Hey man what did you do and use to re-polish the screen?
Hi Giovanni thanks for watching and comment, to polish the screen I used fine grit sandpaper (400 to 2500) until I removed deep scratches and finish with car's paint polish compound (also known as scratch remover) until it got that glossy finish. Hope this help you and let me know if you have more questions!
@@diyit6725 Did you also put the car polish paint compound on the resin case or just on the glass?
@@guandasin3099 yep also polish the case
@@diyit6725 does the polish help with the glass against scratch resistant?
@@guandasin3099 depending the polish you use, some leave a protective film that repeals oil and water but the plastic is not scratch proof you only need to be careful with the screen like in a brand new Casio
Why Casio can’t just do this from the get go is beyond me...

Where to buy the black film?

What did you use to restore the plastic on the screen and remove all the scratches?
Hi, I used fine grit sandpaper that is commonly used for car polishing or body repair mainly 600, 1000 ,2000 grit and also car polishing or swirl remover to make it shinier
@@diyit6725 Is that what you used on the plastic trim too?
@@KieranWithey yes, used the same process for the screen cover and for the plastic trim
Can you still reuse the same polarizing film from the watch? Curious cause I want to make my Casio AE1000 into negative display
I guess, but you have to split it in order to turn it 90 degrees and make it fit to the screen
Y yo queriendo cambiar mi visor negro por uno gris para ver mejor los números XD
my screen got messed up, it's not displaying properly, how can i fix this?
Did you remove the battery?
@@diyit6725 yea, i replaced battery. Luckily after laying on the table for a while, screen started to work normally. Assembled the watch, works fine.
