Something looks different, did the markers and inscriptions on the dial are larger than usual? I actually like the overall look! Congrats for a good looking build.

Yes, good eye!
It's RXW mm20 rep. A rep of a rep
Ken Sato designed the dial to have that curious bigger font. That's what I like. And the iron covered movement.
Gen example

Good to know that Ken made a difference in detailing to pleased the eyes and yet not obvious to know straight away! This is a nice build, E. I personally will wear it all day.

Lots of 3646 projects and everyone has its own style.Very nice,classic movement ,unusual white-cream dial !
Yeah kind of wanted something unique. I've always liked the 3646 but felt case heavy and with wired lugs. Emilio and I traded parts and fell in love of how light the prototype is.

The good thing is that I think that I have a lead to parts now. I admit that I am my own worst enemy, I wanted to build this from scratch with NOS parts, movement assembled from parts, case, dial and hands, everything used for the first time and some of it will still be 45-50 years old.
It will be your best work i think.
