Cleaning up and found my baton hands. They are gold, but I put them on to see the shape. Definitely the right style. Not super keen on the gold, but I read it easier than the grey steel hands.
So, for now, this is the watch. Image

Ok, got my watch back from my watch guy. Replaced the crystal for all of 90 rupees. That's $1.39 USD. Also found an old dead watch I totally forgot about, and poached the silicon strap off it. I like it.
The new baton style have reasonable lume and it all kinda matches.
I'd say this one is finished for now with a potential hand update in the future.

It's alive.... alive!!!
I guess that makes me Dr. Sturmanskiestein. ImageImage

Bored and waiting for my kid. She left me her manga, so rather than read it, it became a prop.Image
