Dragon coin watch

[Horus]

Hello!

I made this watch for my wife's sister.
Case: asian 43 mm pilot style case.
Crystal: original two sapphire crystal.
Movement: Unitas 6497 with blue heated screws.
Dial: coin $1.
Hands: asian blue hands.
Strap: my hand made snake leather.

I made a dial from Liberia coin $1 with a dragon. Reshape on lathe coin from 3.0 mm to 0.5 mm, chemically aged it and made a blacking. Also soldering dial feet to the coin for movement.
Here are the results. I hope you like it

I made it thinner on my lathe.
I bought a coin in my town in an antique shop. You can find such a coin on the Internet. It's 1997 Liberia Dragon $1 Hong Kong coin.
