Thanks. The whole dial is decal but with two layers, Dragon and the Yin Yang moon.

So after my last post on this thread someone pmed me and ask me for a custom watch. We got an agreement, and I just mailed him the watch this morning!
Here it is:

And a wrist shot:

And she rarely leaves my wrist, Pierre! I thought this would be my daily work watch. I put a carbon fiber strap on it from Panatime (needed a longer strap for my nearly 8" wrist), and find that it just works with almost everything I wear on almost every occasion.
So instead of being my work watch daily beater, it is my favorite go-to watch almost every day. And a beater it is not! I protect it with my life!!

Thanks again for taking the time and consideration to attempt this project for me. I could not be happier with the results!

Very good tutorial. I follow the steps here and got one special for me. Check these out:

Brought mine in a toy store specialised in sacle model.
The brand is Holi (as can be seen in the photos in OP), it's distributed by MID (Models Import & Distribution) in Belgium, they have a web site www.mid-belgium.com
Haven't tested the site, hope it will help.
