I Built a GMT-Master II Homage From AliExpress Parts (NH35 Build!)

A full build of a GMT-Master II inspired watch — using AliExpress parts and an NH35 instead of NH34. Disassembly, dial install, hands, case work, assembly and final test. A simple homage build, but a beautiful result! If you enjoy Seiko mods, NH35 projects, homage builds, or watchmaking content — you’ll love this one.
