I bought this watch back in the April, but when I wore it to summer camp, the humidity actually made the original white paint peel off! It was pretty awful looking at this point, so I decided to repaint it using good ole nail polish, and the piano design looked great. I don't have pictures from when I was painting it, but it is very self-explanatory. I'm really happy with how it turned out, and I hope you guys are too, enjoy! :)

Gather together a nice, metal expansion band wrist-watch that needs some remodeling, white nail polish with a small brush, and a black nail art pen.
Stretch out your watch so that the bars will seperate from eachother. This way after you paint, each bar can dry, and not stick to eachother.
Paint each bar white, and when they have all dried COMPLETELY, remove your watch from the object, and allow it to unstretch. Then, following the pattern of a piano's black keys, use your nail art pen to draw black bars.
Finally, after the black paint has dried as well, stretch your watch out again and apply a thin coat of top shine/top coat to protect it from weathering. At last, go out and show off your totally "in tune" watch :)
