There will be NO macro shots of the dial or hands, but it is together and keeping time. Thanks for the pointers Ron!

It looks good with the naked eye. Kind of like a rusty Rolls Royce with a Maco paintjob from across the parking lot. . .

Ditto, I can't see how a macro shot would make that look bad.

See Chris it looks just fine ! After a pep talk from Ron, a little progress. . . Icon_biggrin Actually it looks GREAT sir. What a
tremendous job you did. I can't imagine doing something like this,
but you did it ! That dial is just the best..From the numbers and
hands, to the Smellody and XMT names. It's something to be VERY
proud of, and it's one of a kind. Congratulations on accomplishing
this !!!!

Looks great chris, i'm going to post up my first mod in the morning, you've all seen it before but the second hand fell off and i just opened the case and took it out and put it back together without the second hand and threw it on a bracelet! So i know what you've been going through! think your watch looks awesome!! After a pep talk from Ron, a little progress. . . 812159

I think it looks awesome. I know you were frustrated but persistence pays.

Enjoy it for a long time to come.
