Servicing this will be interesting.

Knew it!
I have basically the same clock - only dial is marked 'collingwood' and the movement is sterile...

I now have 3..... I have been planning a tank watch for a while but haven’t gotten any traction yet. Any ideas on a donor case?

One of the smaller rectangular 8 day movements.

How many of these have you worked on?

A potential purchase. It's on the cheap side but the case has nice shape and can be a decent build with love and effort, I guess Image the rose gold pvd can be removed by brushing and sanding

The strap can be used as a spare for a 24mm looks like.
Dial can be changed for a decent one, and the movement and the glass and the hands as well. But what the heck, would just buy and give it as a present and make someone happy for a 80 bucks

I don't think I have anything better than you. I'm on lookout for the case on Ebay, but haven't found anything real yet.

On the other hand - clock case could be used as a movement ring in a round build - diameter of the round part should be ~37.5 if I remember correctly...

Is the power reserve indicator actually functional? If it is, that alone would be worth the price of the watch.
