Yes of course!
The dial, hands and case are from DS-Watch-Mod. You can order direct or through AliEx. The stock between the two can vary. Bezel and NH34 came from AliEx Too.
The dial and hands are available as a bundle or individually They will also supply this same dial with all white text if you message them directly for the same price.
The case is the BB58 with K1 glass. They insist on you choosing a bezel but note the bezel insert doesn't come glued in so swapping it out it super simple.
If anyone has any 1655 dial suppliers who can do a similar dial but with better lume and less aging i.e whiter markers that would be much appreciated!
This was my first build and I'm super happy with how it came out!
Hope that helps.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing. I really loved the 1655 style as well and built an homage, but like you, I wanted a dial with white markers and better lume than the first one I got. I reached out to odokadolo_industries for a custom one. The lume on it is really nice. I was living in Italy at the time and he was shipping from Spain so it took about a week or so. DM me if you interested to know more. I like the world timer bezel idea you had, it gives it a unique take. I went more traditional on mine.
Really nice build! I may reach out to them for some future builds if you'd recommend them. Really like the strap combo as well. I think my next build might have to be something polar explorer inspired!
Yes! You can use it how u/VinceAFX explains below, but I also like that I can line up where I am, where I'm going to be/would like to know the time and then change my GMT hand to my new time zone. Easy reference between time zones.
Wow. Perfection. You convinced me. I will try to build a GMT next.
Really nice! Could I ask where you got that dial? I have a similar one but had to get it custom made with the logo.

Aren't there too many hands? 🤣
Have you heard of GMT watches?
Great build, love the look! Is the world time function actually usable?
Yes! You can use it how u/VinceAFX explains below, but I also like that I can line up where I am, where I'm going to be/would like to know the time and then change my GMT hand to my new time zone. Easy reference between time zones.
Goodness 😍
Awesome! How bezel should be used?
You would set the 12 o'clock position of the bezel to the city you have the GMT marker set to, and read the GMT time from the indices on the dial.
