I would only use the movement. Everything else would have to go.

What seems to be the issue with the build? I thought it looked quite nice :). Curious to learn more :)

That case is from a modern PAM rep made in CHINA, and so is the dial (that has a butt plug in it) and the hands, which are all wrong. The case is about 3mm thicker than a mini fiddy case. The CG lever has a roller...

Most people making an Angelus build will spend (a lot) more than $100 on the case, hands, dial etc.

You're welcome. That said, that build may be perfect for some people and that is OK. I have a build with a similar case :) Mine has an automatic with center seconds as icing on the cake :oops: but you can't see it from far away.

Movement seems really clean for its age. I kinda like the full gold aesthetic for this particular watch

Seems clean, but I have no experience with 8 day movements.
