Glasshute 100 year old movement rehoused and looking elegant

Guys

 

Just finished this today and although not everyone's bag, I love the elegance and look of these pieces and with it's very fine Rose Gold Hands and crown, is a watch you will rarely see if at all!

The transplant itself is quite easy with a few simple hobby tools and patience and good eyes. The more complicated ones like the Repeater project I leave to the Smiths of the world.

 

I have posted a similar stunner in the Gen section for sale. I hope you like them.

 

Regards

Beautifully elegant whilst being both delicate and robust. This is definitely my bag for sure!

Wow! You can throw it in my bag any time!

I SO want to do a project like this! An old IWC movement, or something. Some of the old Hamilton pocket watch movements are really cool. Any tips? Did you source the case from Ofrei?

Gorgeous! I love it. Been wanting to do a project like this myself.
