I am looking for individuals and companies that do custom mods to watches.  Improve lume, change hands, faces, crystals, etc.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks  Thumbsup3.gif

I hate to sound like a broken record, but using the search engine will provide you with numerous examples and sources...:D

As a start, Yao has a list of authorised "modders" that are allowed to use his parts in doing mods.  http://www.mkiiwatches.com/

Kent Parks at everest.com for lume and, of course, yobokie, wherever you can find him.

Krethk,

I can vouch for Harold Ng (yobokies) and Noah Fuller (10watches), as I have a watch from each.  I am in the process of acquiring a watch from Bill Yao (MKII), and anxiously await it.  As for Kent Parks (New England Watch Works), everyone says he does great work, but his turn around time is a little sporadic.  Hope this helps.

Stu

Kent Parks is from Everest while North East Watch Works is Duarte. Kent is always backed up but if you want a killer lume job it might be worthwhile...toon1.gif

Pax,

Thanks for the correction.  I'm thinking of having my Monstrum re-lumed (only drawback to the watch imho), and have been looking around so much got twisted.

I have a watch modder that I have used for all of my watches and he does amazing work. Now one of the few things he doesn't do is lume but he sends all his stuff to Kent. Matter of fact Kent is doing a watch for me right now!;)
