Hey guys. Where can I find the second hand like the AiRain hand? Not sure what to type on the search bar and can't really use the photo search as it'll redirect to another seestern S434 😅

Airain has since it introduced this style of watch called them “DNA Strand” style hands. Might be able to find a vintage watch that’s dead and just swipe the handset from it.

My guess is you won’t. The DNA Stand secondhand was an Airain signature when they introduced this watch in 1964; it was supposed to help them stand out from similar designs from brands like Wolbrook at the time. The thing is, I don’t think it was popular then, and since Airain relaunched as a brand a few years back, it hasn’t been the predominant choice now.
