Thanks for the kind comments. I have a little more work to do on it. The crown will positioned better with an improved design lever I have ready to fit. I will need to shorten the stem by 0.4mm. While the watch is apart I will relume the face to be slightly brighter. I think I overdid the aging a tiny bit.

Building these watches, particularly if trying to develop an aged patina, is not for the feint hearted. It was a lot more work than I imagined. The resin took a significant part of my life force. Really enjoyed it however. I built a 3646 before this one an that was more straightforward.
