Yippee!

For the wearability, I think 52mm is more suitable to fit an SF240 movement, and should be more easily waterproofed.

The modded and lowered dsn case set was one of the most wearable cases I ever had on- although larger than fiddy due to shallower overall height and shape it was exceptionally comfortable on. Also I think the case looses something when it gets too small- just my 50c

hey guys, i can only do a couple at a time, i did not want to offer this up as a full blown sign up, because of the upcoming shout down and building project, so i am doing a couple for guys that have bugged me about it for a long time now. if these go well, i will offer up another run after im settled in the new digs. i understand it may not have been a fair way of going about doing the first run, but i have learned (plexi bezel project) to make damn sure i can pull it off 100% before offering it up on a large scale. also i want to do these all in house instead of farming them out to a machine shop...
so stay tuned, i will post up some progress photos as i go.

Good decision- don’t overcommit, and keep qc high!
