Sterile White Enamel Dial (Day Date)

No. of Pieces

Sterile White Enamel. Blank Dial. Highly Glossy.

A clean, highly glossy white enamel face with nothing on it — no markers, no numerals, no logo, no text. A true blank slate, finished in a high-gloss enamel that holds its shine under the light.

Built for two kinds of modder: the one who wants to print, paint, or apply their own design onto a clean canvas, and the one who wants the purest sterile white look exactly as it ships. Either way, the surface does the work.

The enamel holds beautifully on its own — glossy, even, and hard-wearing, with none of the fragility of a matte or applied-marker dial.

A blank white canvas, kept in stock.
The Sterile White Enamel is one of our core blank dials — restocked regularly, not a limited run. Browse the dials collection .

Bright glossy enamel.
A high-gloss white enamel surface with a clean, even sheen — it reflects light crisply and holds its finish without the delicacy of matte or textured dials.

A true blank canvas.
Fully sterile: no applied or printed indices, no numerals, no logo, no "Automatic" text. Run it clean for a pure white face, or use it as a base for your own dial work.

Heads up — a dial is one part of the build

Hands. A dial needs a matching set of hands to tell time. This is a sterile, non-lume dial, so it pairs with any set of hands you like — if you want the watch to glow at night, choose lumed hands, since the dial itself carries no lume.

Movement. This Day Date dial takes a day-date automatic — the Seiko NH36. See the FAQ for the full list.

Questions, Answered

Everything worth knowing before you build.

Does this dial have any markers?

No — it's a fully sterile dial. No applied or printed hour indices, no numerals, no minute track, no logo, and no "Automatic" text — just a clean, uninterrupted surface. Your choice of hands does the timekeeping, and the blank face also makes an ideal base for your own design.

Is the Sterile White dial glossy or matte?

Highly glossy. It is a bright, high-gloss white enamel with a clean, reflective sheen. The enamel is smooth and even, with none of the fragility of a matte or textured finish.

Can I customise this dial?

Yes — the blank, sterile surface is made for it. Modders use it as a base for printed or hand-applied markers, custom logos, and designs; the smooth, even face gives a clean starting surface. How well a given paint, ink, or transfer bonds depends on your own materials and technique, so test your method before committing to the final dial.

Does this dial have lume?

No — this dial carries no lume. If you want the watch to glow in the dark, pair it with a set of lumed hands; the glow then comes from the hands rather than the dial face.

Which movement does this dial need?

This is a day-date dial, so it needs the Seiko NH36 — and only the NH36, the one caliber that drives both the day and the date. Don't fit an NH35 here: with no day disc to fill the day window, you'd see the bare movement through the cutout — unsightly.

Will this dial fit my case?

Yes, almost certainly. This is a standard Seiko mod dial — 28.5mm in diameter and 0.4mm thick, the industry-standard size — so it fits most, if not all, Seiko cases. Where a dial is shown with a particular case, that's an aesthetic pairing, not a fitment requirement. If you're unsure, the surest check is to remove your current dial and measure it with a vernier caliper.

Why does the dial have four legs?

The dial ships with four legs so it fits two different crown positions. Seiko movements come in 3 o'clock and 4 o'clock crown layouts, and the dial feet sit in different places for each. Clip off the two legs that don't match your crown position — two stay, two go.

How do I fit this to a 3 or 4 o'clock crown movement?

Remove the two legs that don't match your movement's crown position by clipping or gently twisting them off, then seat the dial as normal — two legs stay, two go. Alternatively, set the movement's crown to the 3 o'clock or 4 o'clock position, superimpose the dial on top, and see how the feet line up — whichever way it aligns, note which two legs need cutting and proceed from there. See the How To Mod tab for the full fitting walkthrough.

Does this dial work with a normal or an ultra thin chapter ring?

Both our normal and ultra thin chapter rings fit this dial. Where a dial has applied (raised) indices, they sit within the clearance of either ring — so the choice is purely about looks: the ultra thin chapter ring sits low and discreet, while the normal sits a little more pronounced. Pick whichever suits your style.

Is this a limited edition / will it be restocked?

No — unlike our numbered limited-edition dials, this is a core staple: an open-run dial we keep in regular stock and restock as needed. There's no fixed edition size and no risk of it being retired after a single run.

Are hands included with this dial?

No — dials and hands are sold separately. This listing is for the dial only; choose a matching handset to complete the build. If your dial is lumed, pairing it with lumed hands in the same lume type keeps the whole face glowing together.
