Royal Oak Hands V1
- In stock, ready to ship
Complete Your Build
Polished silver hand set designed for Royal Oak and Nautilus-style Seiko mod builds. The baton-style hands feature a mirror-polished finish that catches light cleanly against both sunburst and textured dials. C3 SuperLuminova lume strips on the hour and minute hands provide strong visibility in low light. Compatible with NH35, NH36, NH70, NH71, and NH72 movements, and sized to work with both 28.5 mm and 30.8 mm dials. This is the original Nomods V1 hand design — a classic polished finish that pairs naturally with silver-tone cases and bracelets.

Compatibility
These silver V1 hands fit every Nomods case that accepts NH-series movements. They work with the Royal Oak 37mm V2 case, the Royal Oak 41mm case, the Petrichor case, and the Seikonaut / Nautilus case. The hand post diameter is standard across the NH35, NH36, NH70, NH71, and NH72 movement families, so you can use these on any dial size from 28.5 mm to 30.8 mm without fitment issues. For 41mm Royal Oak builds with a larger dial window, consider the elongated hand set for better proportional reach.

Designed by Nomods
The V1 hand set is the original Nomods hand design. The polished finish was chosen to match the faceted, mirror-polished bevels found on Royal Oak-style cases and bracelets. Each hand is cut from stainless steel and polished to a uniform reflective surface that reads as a single bright line against the dial. The C3 lume is applied in a clean strip along the center of the hour and minute hands for reliable nighttime legibility.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between V1 and V2 hands?
The V1 hands have a fully polished mirror finish across the entire surface, giving a classic, bright appearance. The V2 hands feature a brushed center with polished edges, which creates more visual depth and reduces glare. The V1 set also supports a wider range of movements — NH35, NH36, NH70, NH71, and NH72 — while the V2 is listed for NH35, NH36, and NH72.
Will these hands fit my Royal Oak 37mm or 41mm case?
Yes. These hands fit both the 37mm and 41mm Royal Oak cases, as well as Petrichor and Seikonaut cases. They work with 28.5 mm and 30.8 mm dials. For the 41mm case specifically, the standard-length V1 hands will function correctly, but the elongated hand set was designed to better fill the larger dial area.
Do I need special tools to install these hands?
You will need a hand press tool (also called a hand setting tool) to push the hands onto the movement pinions. A hand remover or hand puller is also needed if you are removing existing hands first. These are standard watchmaking tools available from most modding supply stores. Our build guide covers the full hand installation process.
