Have begun this thread by “will I succeed to build it?” Now have my reply, enjoy and thanks for your support.

Now just need the crystal and carbon bezel to sit in and finish,

Awesome work my friend. The crystal gets the etched dial printing, yes? Fascinating point about having to use a stock bridge to set the hands. I don't see how you could ever part with this unless you are going to make more of them!

Fantastic work Micasol! Have you had any luck finding the baton hands for the subdials? Been searching but those are impossible to find!

Here is the second gen movement, finishing is different, but should be cool too, for the dial I am still thinking about like the bezel, maybe a black ceramic with a black leather croc band, hands stock gen white gold, a must classy one

Love your work micasol

What's with the 2 bezels as well? They are so different (font, colour, even text at 1 o'clock)
