My first "build it yourself"

[spankster23]

This was my first Pam build. Lot of fun to do but a huge learning curve at first. Broke off one of the tab mounting screws in the movement, so i ended up building a custom movement holder out of brass... I've been wearing it for 2 weeks now and nothing has fallen off .

The build:

Getat brushed 44mm case

St3600 movement

Sandwich Dial from helanarou, baked and re-lumed with Holio's vintage lume.

Helenarou gold hands.

Strap from DON.

Thanks for looking,

Spanky

Nice effort,  the Gold hands are very striking

Nice work.

I hope I'll be able to work on my watches someday.

Very nice and a really good result considering this was your first pam build. Impressive.

Thanks everyone! I thought I would never have the patience for this, but it actually is relaxing. The real problem as we all know is the WOS! "Waiting on shipping". I'm starting about 4 more builds and have mixed parts for all but nothing I can complete. I'll post more builds later.

Actually there is!  Revell color code 32184 Leather Brown on the strap...  Now keep in mind kids this was a level 3 model. (12+)  Adult supervision is advised

That's a nice build!
The problem for me is finding all the parts you'll need for a project. I don't have that much patience

That's a nice build! Is there any pics of the movement ?
