Piece Unique - Breathing New Life into Vintage Parts aka "Restomodding"
Listen now
Description
Today we discuss "restomodding" -- the art of creating working watches using both vintage and modern parts. So, for all the folks with grandpa's old watch sitting unused in a drawer, this episode is for you! I'm joined by modder David from secondhandmods.com, and Brigham, a fellow modder from the BSH (iykyk). This episode was born from discussions around my Vintage Linen Dial mod, which was an unexpected hit. You can see modded watch here. Brigham also discusses his experience modding outside the world Seiko, which is quite rare! Thanks for educating us Brigham! My baby causes me to step away twice, good thing we had two guests! Nothing is edited out -- we keep it real at Fifth Wrist! Recommendations: Matt - @steveofyork David - @noah_jens and @koda_watches Brigham - The Book "Neurotribes: The Legacy of Autism and the Future of Neurodiversity" If you'd like to chat about modding or have ideas for guests for the show, message me on instagram ⁠@dad.watch⁠.
