Necky's build?
I think Alex (Kpoy) also sold something simmilar about a year or two ago,most probably on the old forum...Can't remember the type of movement,though.
it's an Eterna.

To @Kpoy sorry for copying your library to this thread.

About the bezel winding performance, might want to ask @leeyewfei.
Yes,that's the one, now I remember:)

Here are two case back wound watches-

Test fitting step 1....BOOM! It fits, at least almost, a few more hundreds of mm off the winding and setting knobs and it will clear the crystal.
I don't think it is worth involving P****** in this, so I will use a neutral case back ring or one where it says ANGELUS SF240 MOVEMENT, now where the hell is that? I guess I have too many parts and too many places where I can place these things..

Test fitting step 2, some other case ingredients and crystal...

I think I will remove the ultra high cannon pinion and hour wheel, go low and use a thin dial. Why not, after all this is a crazy build and I was thinking of a Cali from Southy/Dow....or not, perhaps something saying Angelus, I think I have such a dial somewhere - better yet.
Cleaning up the winding and setting knobs, I want shiny brass under the crystal.

That is super cool!

What is the water resistance going to be on this bad boy?

;P

At least 10 ATM, it must be splash proof.

Oh!

Is the key winding lever going to be under the crystal in the back? I'm amazed that there will be clearance for that. I was under the impression that a hole would be cut for it so you could access it for winding. (Hense my cheeky question about water resistance).

I lowered the winding and setting arbors and also lowered the collars of the knobs, so they will be in there all the time, I think that it looks better that way.

Holes were never my option, at least nothing else than a thought for a few seconds.
