Friends, I decided to treat myself to new tweezers in NY.
I reduced the choice to Bergeon and Dumont. In my research, I found out some information that may be useful to someone :wave:

Screwed and welded NW tube in an Alli case.

The plexy was cracked, perhaps due to the pressure I applied with my hand when grabbing it to make the thread.

How about an idea like this? Image
Pocket watch was with an ETA/Unitas movement. Therefore no issues to build a PAM homage pocket watch.

What about using a sober/smooth pocket case, without lid, and solder wire lugs? trench watch style....

Regarding pocket case, see above answer with pic to Belkin12.

It’s only a request of a friend of mine. He just wants a PAM style pocket watch.
I‘ve built a Flieger style pocket watch for him either.
