NMK-WK21 DIY Watchmaking Kit: "MB-78" by Watch Me Build It
namoki x Watch Me Build It
Creator: Shaun of Watch Me Build It
Creator Notes: When I began watchmaking in 2018, I discovered the ‘Lord of the Chapter Rings,’ a legendary watch by the brand with the crown logo. Its younger sibling, the BB58, became famous for resembling an early version of the ultimate dive watch, featuring a large crown without guards.

This was my first watch build and I really enjoyed it. The videos on the website were very helpful and the parts were quality. I used the kit selector on the website.
I would say that I will use the site again in the future but, truth be told, I have already ordered more parts.
I love this kit !
Pretty simple to do
you need some patience for the second hand.
But when it's done, that's work very well !
This is a stunning piece. Loved the experience of assembling the watch and it sparkles on my wrist. Very happy with this purchase
Love the design and the color, everything looks perfect! Super love it ❤️
I received this kit today and look forward to building it one day next week. However, I am a bit sceptical as I never received any building instructions. This could have helped massively as this will be my first watch, which I am attempting to build.
