Micro brand watches coming soon.
Not every case or dial fits every movement. Open the parts catalog to see everything on one page, or pick a movement below to start with that filter on. The builder still checks that the parts you pick go together.
Every part is labelled with the movements it fits. Categories fill up as I add parts I've checked.

Hi, I'm Johnny. ChronoArs is where I share the watches I put together and help you build one of your own.
I don't sell anything myself and I don't hold any stock. Every part here is sold and shipped by sellers on AliExpress. That's where most mod parts come from, but it's spread across thousands of shops and hard to browse, and it rarely tells you what fits what. So I do the digging: I sort the parts by movement, check the numbers that matter, and label each one with what it fits. You pick the parts you love, and the builder makes sure they go together.
This is an affiliate site. When you buy through one of my links, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. It's what keeps the site running.
Enjoy the build.
