Best description of the Hydro Mod I've ever heard. As a scuba diver I'm always having to try explain why, my mate is only divied to 15 meters on a "holiday dive" his 30 meter watch flooded. Also, I'm going to pick up a couple of these and send to my grandsons in Canada. They can do this as a science project in their "lockdown home schooling" situation they are in. Cheers for the idea. Subscribing was easy decision.
Nice video. Couple comments which you probably know but didn't see them when I scanned the comments In addition to being an incompressible fluid the silicone oil is electrically non conducting so even if "a little" water leaks in and displaces some oil, the watch should still function. Using the lightest oil possible makes it easier to get rid of the air bubbles and also reducing the additional load of the oil of the mechanism for an analog watch (not effect on a digital of course). If you do get a bubble in the display, you just tell people is the "spirit level" mod.😀👍
Can you adjust the day/date and not have oil leak out? Or will it leak when you pop that crown? Not sure if this model screws down or not, the duro screws down but is 200m wr.
Yeah no issues setting date/day or time. It has a double o ring on the stem so keeps the oil in nicely. This was done 3-4 weeks ago and still oil tight :)
It doesn’t have a screwdown crown, but for the money, this model is legendary. Lume isn’t great and there is no warning as to when the battery runs out.
One thing you should perhaps have mentioned is that once the mod is done, it is pretty much irreversible. The whole watch - especially the internals would have to be cleaned thoroughly using a solvent, which would probably have a detrimental effect on the internals, and possibly the watch face and numerals. Surely, when it comes to adjusting the day/date, say for a shorter month, won't the watch leak oil at the point where you pull the crown out to do the adjusting? Also, has anyone tried this mod with the MRW - S300H ? It appears to be the same watch as the 200H, only solar powered. I was wondering if the oil would have a detrimental effect on the watch's ability to use the energy from the sun and convert it to electricity.
With regards to the date change, there is a flange inside the watch to give the watch its original 100m water rating. It will not pass oil back through the watch via the stem. The only time that this watch will leak, is under extremes of temperature. If you are taking a trip in death valley and stopping to get a 3 hour sun tan, it might be a problem. The place it is most likely to leak is out of the back plate. I saw a guy put one in a freezer then into an oven at 60 degrees. There was a tiny leak after that but it was working fine.
You need to use a low viscosity oil for best results. If you've ever treaded water your legs work harder under water. Water is more viscous than air. Oil is more viscous than water.
Muy bien explicado el asunto de las presiones. Solo te faltó explicar un par de detalles para que los futuros experimentadores no terminen en una situación indeseada. Primero no se puede hacer con todos los relojes: con los mecánicos no se puede, por ejemplo. Segundo: tienes un altisimo consumo de energía para poder vencer las nuevas resistencias internas, lo que hace que las baterias duren muchisimo menos, lo que a su vez lleva a que tengas que cambiarlas más seguido con las consiguientes molestias. Pero el punto en contra más importante es que tendrás un reloj que cada vez que quieras ponerlo en hora, o programar una alarma, o detener la alarma por la mañana, o cualquier cosa que tu quieras hacer con sus botones, indefectiblemente hará que termines bañado en aceite. Esto es una muy buena opción para casi ninguna circunstancia, ya que si sabes bucear, también sabes que el aparato que se usa para medir el tiempo en las profundidades es algo que se parece de forma muy lejana a un reloj de 20 dolares.
How drastically does this cut the battery life down, and doesn't it make battery replacement that much more laborious? Granted we're talking about a $20 watch here, but at the same time... can't imagine anyone will be using this to dive with anyway? And the refractive index is pretty good on the acrylic already. I guess it's weighing pros and cons at some point but for me, filling this watch with oil would be an overall con.
Well in all honesty i wasn't planning on getting no air in it. Did it too well by the look of it. However, the exspension of silicon oil isn't much think about 0.8% at 40'c so less then 1%. However if the case is 100% full you can;t get 101% in it. I'm hoping the case back has that flex in it to take that exspansion up. Like i say worn on the wrist a few times now and not a leak to be seen :) See in hydraulics we have Thermal relief valve for this very fact.
Do you have a way to check the mod up to 50-60C? Maybe inside a ziploc bag submerged in a warm water bath? That sort of temperature sounds reasonable for a watch in direct sunlight. Any oil leak should show-up inside the bag. The real test of confidence - would you fly with it? I've seen a terrible mess caused by a piston fountain pen packed in a suitcase.
I want to do this as well and was wondering this: will the oil leak out of the crown when pulled out? I'm really wondering this, because people always say a watch is not water resistant with the crown pulled out.
Mine lasted about 4 months, even with a fresh battery the second hand is now too weak to tick through the oil, unless I warm the whole watch up in the dishwasher :D I used Silicon Oil, 500 CPS, which was the thinnest my local R/C model shop had. Did I use the wrong oil, or is this just to be expected? How's yours holding up?
I just used babay oil. Ive done it to 2 G-shocks, neither of them have a seconds hand. The hour hand only has 3 movements per minute so I don't see it affecting battery life.
Done a couple of these as practice pieces for bigger jobs. The oil fill looks fabulous but i was worried about the battery life. Hooked one up to some electrogadgiytirickery and found the current consumption about 3-4 times higher with the oil in than without. This means the 3 year battery will probably only last about 9 months as the motor is working harder to move the hands though the oil. given the price and simplicity of these, it's not a problem but could be a snag when applying the mod to more expensive watches. not going to stop me though, I have a CWC sapphire lined up for a new dial and I think an oil fill will set it off nicely!
Yeah i did have thi point in mind, had the figure of a third battery life in my head. This is were doing this on a solar watch might be good due to it always getting charge. But would still reduce the capacitor life as well. At the end of the day like you say on a £15 watch, not going to think twice but a 2-300+ watch.... Yeah might not go for this mod :)
@@GrimwoodWatchModding , going to do another one of these with fluorinert first and measure the current etc with that before doing an expensive one. Trick is finding the right version, the lighter versions have lower boiling points so some compromise needed. And time! Another plan with the casio would be to put a bigger battery in, there is plenty enough room...
Lasted fine, battery latest 1.5 years which all honesty will be due to the oil drag. Changed it in oil bath like when I made it and had no issue. As for leaks I have had none so far and it sitcks in the same watch box as my other watches :).
Looking good! Tempted to try this with my Traser Officer Pro 67, but a little unsure if the dial and the glue that holds the tritium tubes in place will withstand the oil. Also, did you put the caseback on upside-down..? :)
No i haven't but it is RC car pure silicon shock oil 10wt. Can be picked up very readily off ebay and hobby stores. RC cars is another hobby of mine so had resently bought this for the cars.
Haha done a few so just do it these days, For this watch there is a very small tab which you can see just below the stem on the movement. Just needs to be depressed and pull out. This is in it;s normal position.
@@GrimwoodWatchModding Cheers, in the end I had a poke around and worked it out...did this mod to an orange and black version, can't believe how much it transforms the whole watch from a 15 quid toy to a seriously good looking diver!

No not really. On metal cases it can be done but it is a lot of work. Doing this mod in my mind is one way to get around having a screw down crown :). But persnal like having a screw crown just so i am 100% sure it is in it's normal position when wearing it.
@@GrimwoodWatchModding Cheers pal.

It does seem like a lot of faffing about like you say. Nice one anyway pal. Keep up the great work mate.
Tried this on a MRW-210H. DID'NT WORK!! Same movement, bigger watch. BUMMED!!! It ticks but does not move forward. Guess it didn't have enough torque to move the larger hands in the viscous oil. Reeealy liked the way that looked too and the watch is much heavier. IT DOES WORK fine on the MRW-200H though!
They all work off of a crystal of quartz,these watches, that oscilates 32768 times a second in AIR; once oil gets to it, and if it does, it will be ruined; but maybe the crystal aluminum is water/oil proof? i doubt it.
Hi, what is the Cst of the silicon oil you used? On some of the other modding videos the majority state a Cst of 50. I have looked at the RC car shock oil and the lowest Cst I can find with that type of oil is 100. Interesting to see if you've used something more than a Cst of 50!
I'm a bit late to this idea! I was just changing the battery on my same Casio and did a cartoon style glance at a bottle of shock oil and then the oil filled pressure guage on my compressor. Wow I thought.... I could be a genius.... Better get on you tube and see if anyone else has figured this out! Oh....
Question: Can a guy replace the crystal on this watch with a sapphire crystal or at least a mineral crystal? Mine scratches very easily. I would just love to see a video where someone upgrades an inexpensive watch and makes it a bit nicer.
P.S. With this mod, it looks like 👍 ya can go to the bottom of the ocean 🌊 with this watch, or very close. The oil must act as a “gasket”, as to speak 🗣, but I’d be worried 😟 on such pressures crushing 😻 the case of the watch, or breaking the crystal out of it. Your friend, Jeff.
Not worth it. From my experience. Not comfortable when wanting to change battery It's too messy process And I personally don't like the optical illusion flat effect
Херня! Не делайте так с часами имеющими секундную стрелку. Секундная стрелка встречает сопротивление масла, двигается с затруднением, и часы отстают. Я заливал масло различной плотности, сразу отставание часов заметил при заливке масла вязкостью в 100 сСт, далее я заменил масло на вязкость в 5 сСт, и часы всё равно отстают. (на меньшее время, но отстают) Короче - заливка масла подойдёт если вы заливаете его в часы БЕЗ секундной стрелки, или в часы с электронным дисплэем.

That was really cool!! Does the oil create resistance for the hand movement and slow the watch down ? Also, how did you remove the stem ?
ouhhhhh, there's no effect on that, but the battery will run out fast
@@MFZRKN The battery runs out fast... because there's resistance on the hand movement.
You need to use a low viscosity oil for best results. If you've ever treaded water your legs work harder under water. Water is more viscous than air. Oil is more viscous than water.

That’s some nice looking cheap watch you got there. Definitely will get one.
What happens when you pull the crown out to change the date? Does it leak?
nope, the crown has a double O-ring seal
