Were building an homage to one of the most iconic watches in the world, the Rolex GMT Master II "Pepsi". This homage is build around a Seiko NH34 movement and features a back enamel dial with parody subscript as well as the classic red and blue ceramic bezel insert. With these parts and some slight modifications the end result is nothing short of stunning. Hope you enjoy!

bro made a Relax 💀

@goldenmoontheyoungest8389 7 месяцев назад

I subscribed as soon as I saw "Relax" with the broken crown. Keep it up brother. I'm getting into it now and will be following closely.

Thats great man, happy to hear the build came out looking good! I really do love these "Relax" dials but you're right they don't leave much room for GMT hand clearance.

Thanks for this video. I have a PD-1662 pepsi with the DG5833 movement and after a year, of sitting on my desk and giving it a shake now and then, the stem will not screw back in all the way and it does not run but a few seconds after giving it a good shake. So I ordered a NH34A movement and hope to get it in a few days.

@GoldenStateWatchShop 6 месяцев назад

@rodgilbert894 thank you for checking out the video glad you liked it. I actually had the same Pagani Designs "Pepsi" for awhile before giving it to a friend of mine. Though the NH34A is a superior and more user friendly movement then the DG8533 you may run into issues trying to directly swap the movement into the case. The dial orientation and hand size will be different from the DG to the NH and the case and movement holder will be specific to holding the DG movement in place. I commend you for wanting to do the swap yourself and if you do run into issues please feel free to reach out to me and I'm more then happy to help troubleshoot. Thank you again for your support.

I have a Parnis GMT with DG3804 movement that is awful. Do you know if the movement can be replaced with NH34?

@GoldenStateWatchShop 2 месяца назад

Hey man thank you for checking out the channel. Unfortunately I can’t say with confidence that a NH34 will fit into that case. Sometimes sellers will make one case and use a variety of movement holders to accommodate different movements but I can’t say for sure this Parnis case is like that. One additional thing to consider is that the dial and hands won’t fit the NH34 movement. I’m sorry I couldn’t be more helpful. Please feel free to reach out with any other questions. Thank you for your support.

Very nice! Have you had any opportunity to utilize the new Miyota 9075 movement in any mods?

@GoldenStateWatchShop 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for your kind words! Unfortunately I haven't been able to use a 9075 in any builds. To my knowledge those movements have been reserved for a few select brands to use and aren't available to the general public just yet. I'd be interested to do a build with one in the future and compare the "True" GMT of the Miyota to the "Caller" GMT of the Seiko.

Where did you get your parts?

@GoldenStateWatchShop Год назад

I mainly use sites like Namokimods, Lucius Atelier and dialmaker to source parts for these builds. Ebay and Secondhandmods.com are also great places to find slightly used parts at a discount if you are looking to get into the hobby. I hope this helps, and please feel free to reach out with any additional questions. Thank you.

@@GoldenStateWatchShop Thanks for the info, they sell a a few pepsi bezels at different price points. How expensive was it this one if you don't mind me asking. Cheers

@GoldenStateWatchShop 9 месяцев назад

At the time of this build the bezel insert was slightly over one hundred USD. Prices often fluctuate but I would assume it will still be around that price point. If you find one for significantly lower chances are it will be an aluminum insert, or in some cases a combination of both aluminum and ceramic. Please let me know if you have any other questions, I hope this helps.

Nice video, too bad about the focus. Where can I find the manual for using the crown of the NH34 movement?

@GoldenStateWatchShop 2 месяца назад

Hey thank you for checking out the video and yes it’s a shame I didn’t catch the focus issue earlier. A google search for “NH34 Technical Guide” should bring up several links with the full guide. Typically the explanation of the crown positions is towards the bottom. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you for your support.

How do you cut the dial feet?

@GoldenStateWatchShop 6 месяцев назад

@chrisburton Thank you for checking out the video. To cut the dial feet I use a nipper tool. Really any kind of cutters should work. I like the nipper tool because its flat on the backside so I can get right up against the dial for a nice flush cut eliminating the need for a lot of filing. I hope this helps, please feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions.

@35:29, what click pull out of the stem to adjust the time gmt hand, thank you. Love your video so it is educational for beginners. Also a first timer to your channel and subscribed 😊

@GoldenStateWatchShop 3 месяца назад

Thank you for checking out the channel I'm glad to have you along for the ride. After unscrewing the crown from the crown tube the watch is considered to be in the 0 position which is used for winding the mainspring. Pulling the crown one click out puts it in the 1st position used for date and GMT hand adjustment. Pulling the crown out one more time will put the crown in the 2nd position, its final position, which is used for adjusting the time. I hope this helps, if you have any more questions feel free to reach out, thank you for your support!

@GoldenStateWatchShop 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for checking out the video. I apologize for the focus issues. For some reason the camera really liked to focus on my fingers rather then the watch parts and I didn't realize until after the video was being edited.

I’m going to have to do this build next❤ where did you get your parts from. Are you able to setup a link so that you get a fee from it as well.

@GoldenStateWatchShop Месяц назад

Hey man thank you for checking out the video. Though I appreciate your willingness to support the channel I don't think I have a large enough following to establish affiliate links...yet. That said the parts come from a variety of suppliers. Places like Namokimods, Lucius Atelier, Crystal times. Second Hand Mods is also a great place to look if you don't mind building with lightly used parts. eBay and Aliexpress have a vast amount of vendors and parts but it does take some time to sift through and find higher quality items on those platforms. Again thank you very much for the support. Please feel free to reach out with any additional questions.
