So much so that I've been neglecting the rest of my watches for the last month approximately, utilizing the DWC-D02 as my everyday carry. Easy and versatile design of the DWC-D02 Scuba Diver View (Picture: IBTimes/ Jeff Li)While not excessively fancy, the DIY watch is not too minimalist either.
The bezel has a knurled edge, and the inlay a white on black brushed metal finish. The red indices from 15-20 is a small but great touch that provides the overall style that extra character. The exceptional size of the DWC-D02 doesn't capture on shirt cuffs (Photo: IBTimes/ Jeff Li)I discovered the design of the DWC-D02 flexible and it wears well with both casual outfit and with a complete organization suit.
The 41mm case steps 13mm thick, and has an overall convex profile, triggers minimal obstruction and seldom captures on shirt cuffs. Custom-made rotor with my name on it (Picture: IBTimes/ Jeff Li)Being quite utilized to Miyota automatic motions, I found the NH 35 motion to be significantly different. This Site used sweep is smoother than what I'm utilized to, and the resistance on the crown when winding feels weightier.
Usually, I guide clear of tacky practices like inscribing my own name on gadgets. Nevertheless when it comes to the DWC-D02, given that it was assembled by my own hands, the personalized name is more like the artist's signature on a painting. The DWC-D02 with the Spinnaker's Flat Edged Rubber Strap (Photo: IBTimes/ Jeff Li)If I was required to pick one thing to change about the DWC-D02, I 'd say it is the strap.
I switched out the standard problem band for Spinnaker's Flat Edged Rubber strap and I found it to be a better match. The Spinnaker thin rubber strap is a great alternative strap for the DWC-D02 Diver (Image: IBTimes/ Jeff Li)The thin strap even has a chamfered edge that matches the lugs on the DWC-D02 case, and the wave shaped grooves on the back fits the Scuba diver theme while keeping the wrist cool.
