Thank you everybody!

 

Thanks for the great feedback.
Something about me and this project.
As a Swiss watchmaker it was always a dream for me to build once my own wrist watch, so thats why I started this project.

I started to collect and restore some old machines and also bought some new ones and also built some by myself. My target is to produce all (if ever possible) parts in my own workshop. And it will be all done im leisure time.

About the design.
Since I love mechanical watches and I will spend alot of time in the finish of the parts. I think it's the right way to show them on the top and don't hide them by the dial.
The diameter of the movement will be 37.00mm
The final watch should have a diameter between 42-43mm.
The power reserve regulated by a geneva stop mechanism should be defintly higher than 48h.

If in the whole world there are 1000 people who will spend considerable amount to buy a "one man show" handmade watch over a big name, 998 of them are here

I will do some post when I have some parts to show, at the moment I'm preparing some tools for the further work this isn't very intresting. The latest parts which I did a few hours ago are some intermediate wheel bridges, they are milled from a AP20 bar. ...
