Full watchmaker tool kit
We are here to help
The latest addition to our Mayfair series - combining a matte black case with the fully skeletonized NH-72 automatic movement in ruthenium grey. To provide you with full visibility, this kit is using a thin sapphire dial, enabling you to see every part of your automatic watch movement underneath. The matte coated 38mm case (bezel size) is equipped with a sapphire crystal and exhibition case back to view your movement from all sides. This kit is completed by a set of white coated, lume filled hands for maximum visibility and contrast and either a water resistant, FKM or soft Italian leather strap (20mm width).
Containing all parts, tools and instructions our kits are an ideal start into the world of watchmaking. Learn more about the way a watch works, the history of watchmaking and how to assemble your own automatic watch at home.
All our kits contain a detailed instructions book as well as access to our step-by-step video guides available on our homepage to assist you throughout the assembly.
