Thanks, guys!

It's a Namoki case, bezel, insert, sapphire crystal, & NH35 movement w/ crown. I supplied the dial, handset, & chapter ring. Just completed this build on Thursday and very happy with the results.

On BC rubber today.

These days it's hard to run into someone with a watch ; never mind with the same watch

Thank you, sir! Yep, I suspect not.

It's a blast to visualize various bezel-case-crystal-dial-handset combos and then assembling the components to realize the end result. On rare occasion, a build will result in a dud, requiring a tweak of some sort. But most turn out better than I had imagined.

Thanks a lot! It’s outta this world! The sharpness/“clearness” of the steel is second to none (wonder what alloy the used for this one?), the dial is radiant and really pops in different lighting…can’t believe the watch is 60 years old…feels like a 6 digit Rolex…
