Fascinating story but mostly bullshit :lmao:

 

Every single problem described in the OP, I actually encountered on this particular build, so no, there is no bullshit. The only thing that isn't strictly true, is that I already had all the equipment and tools necessary in my workshop.

This thread wasn't really about this build- although I didn't expect you to get that.

An illuminating insight for those who don't really understand the passion, skill, time & pain that goes into these types of builds............

Dang, composing the story probably took longer than the actual assembly of the watch itself. :lol: Great write up @tripdog123.

Thanks.

Drink is not the answer, you know that - though it does help. . . .

Those holes look pretty round to me (that's what he said).

 

You'll make a fine grandpa someday.

Thanks, I fucking hope so.
