Storage glasses box into a Panerai watch box conversion

As I mentioned yesterday in the “what are you working on now?“ thread, I received the below Fielmann (a German eyewear company) presentation and/or storage glasses box (which isn’t for sale) incl. the glasses and wanted to convert it into a Panerai watch box.

Logo has been nearly removed. Only final finishing touches are needed.

A large PAM dial has been added. Dial bonding to be finalized.

Crown guard has been added but not finally fixed since I’m thinking about adding the crown…

Yes, the magnets shall be removed, too.

What do you think?
Any suggestions?

Well done- no major work needed!

Man that is cool! I need to build one of those! You know, you could drill a hole where the crown goes, add a spring and make the crown pull the release button for the lid.

Man that’s a cool box!

Good idea but this and all further upgrades have to wait for the next two weeks since I am on vacation.
