Acrylic 8 day build
Posted: February 6th, 2022, 8:43 pm
Well after months of working on this piece it's basically done I just want to run it for a few days and off it goes.
What was done.
- Case lugs (had to figure out a way for the lugs to hold in an acrylic case)
- Movement holder adaptor (The original 3 piece holder was made for a bigger movement)
- Blued screws
- Dial backplate with feet
- Adjusted binbin hands blued and lumed
- Dial/stem height nickel plated brass ring (Dial was of the same diameter as the bezel inner diameter and stem height was off)
- Case back crystal gasket made of PTFE
- Shortened and re-threaded stem to 1.2
