1016 Build(Yuki dial&hands, JMB case set, Josh bracelet)

[bluesme519]

Hi guys.

 

I'm just a newbie who just wrote some newbic questions for a few times.

 

But those stupid questions are answered by friendly experts of this forum and thanks to that, I could complete my 1016 build.

 

It was just sudden that I just fall in love with 1016 although I didn't even know if there is a watch like that before I enter this forum.

 

I took a look at 1016 pics around this forum and google, I wanted to have both leather and folded 7836 bracelet.

 

My 1016 build spec is as follows.

Case - JMB

Crown - Rep provided with JMB case set

Crystal - provided with JMB case set

Dial - Yuki

Hands - Yuki

Movement - Clone 2824(Seagull)

Bracelet - Josh

 

JMB was communicative and he is the one who answered my noob question for the most of the time. I appreciate that Justin.

PM him if you want to inquire any good quality case for datejust or exlporer.

I'm not sure Yuki's dial and hands are correct enough but I can guarantee that they are well made with sharp&vivid printings.

Lume is not bad but not superb neither. I'm saying maybe because I compared my 1016 to seiko divers which has super hyper bright lume

Seagull 2824 clone movement has very beautiful decorations which is always good to have. I've heard they are reliable if I give it a good service regulary as most of other eta clone movement.

Bracelet from josh has good quality and I have some good news for you guys which is not the happiest news for me.

I bought the bracelet from josh and I proceeded my purchasing of Aussy spring bars and WSO 580 endlinks because I've heard they fits well with jmb case.

Moreover, I heard that endlink of josh's bracelet doesnt fit well with jmb case.

So I odered bracelet from josh and also ordered wso580 endlinks and aussie spring bars.

However, Josh's bracelet came to me earlier(actually I didn't even received spring bars and 580 endlinks yet. I'm in South Korea which is close to hongkong) and I found that they have really good fitting with jmb enhanced case.

It fits without any modification and I just cannot find any unbalanced point. it just fits good.

Really nice watch.

if you follow the links, there are prices of each items. So sum them all by yourself. The total build price will differ by where you live as I spent a lot to carriers this time.
