Spare Parts Creations
Anyone ever do anything interesting with spare pocket watch parts? I threw this together today since I have a few spare A6497s laying around as well as several Colobri/Arnex cases. Most of the cases are pretty generic but I liked how ornate this case is and it just so happens to have my initials on the exterior. Too bad the inscription inside is to “Skeeter”

Re: Spare Parts Creations
This looks great, I don't think we've done much in terms of modding pocket watches, even back on HF1.0 not many examples.chrislovessushi wrote: ↑March 8th, 2020, 5:18 pm Anyone ever do anything interesting with spare pocket watch parts?
