my new built, seagull 6498 mini fiddy with pencil hands

[level z]

see what i built on a lazy sat night while suffering from a sore throat ...

[Watcha]

you put in a seagull movement?

[level z]

yes .. the watch is 44 mm ... NOT 47 mm ... i have always wanted to built one as i find the 47 mm too big .. next project ... maybe a genuine swiss hammered brass finish 6498 and a hamilton 917 .. once i get hold of the hands .... and when i feel better ..

Looks great! not possible to put on a sapphire glass instead of mineral glass?

[EMboss]

Mind sharing how did you build it? As in the case and movement comes from manufacturer right?

Thx .. guess sapphire would be possible but would bring up the cost of a economical watch ..

built is pretty straight forward ... just need to dis assemble the watch and cut off excess at the second wheel and assemble back .. pretty much that is the only mod needed ... not much skill required, a learner/novice watch maker can do it .... materials were sourced from HK/Taiwan/China ....
