In this video, I show how to build a DIY skeleton watch using the NH72 automatic movement in a Seiko mod style build.
Skeleton watches are all about mechanics, depth, and movement - and the NH72 is one of the best affordable movements to achieve that open, technical look. Step by step, I assemble the watch, explain the parts used, and share tips that will help you avoid common mistakes if you’re building your own NH72 Seiko mod.
This mod is inspired by Stranger Things series.
It is perfect if you:
Want to create your first skeleton watch
Are interested in Seiko mods and DIY watchmaking
Love seeing the movement working through the dial
Want an affordable but visually impressive custom watch
