Ownc1712, thank, maybe I should have kept it simple like you.
Anyway was inspired today, so as I already had the parts, followed Repdoc3‘s plan. Used the Hroudland case, the N35 movement holder it came with, Alix PT 500O movement and plastic movement ring, file to remove one locating lug and also open up the winding stem space, Raffles (mustard/yellow) dial and hands. (As repdoc3 says, it holds the movement pretty tight.....tried to use a Alix NH35 holder but found it needed too much work so was easier to use that supplied with the watch
Also took out the tube for the winder and replaced it with one that fits a Omega crown (idea pinched from further back in the thread cant get to it atm, but will give thanks for the idea when I post a picture). So now I just have to measure and cut the stem and then good for the wrist.
But might make one like yours next time, less work and looks just as good.
