Starting my own case today. Will be fun :lol:

This thing will have a beautiful Hamilton 917 that I got from master [mention]Yoda [/mention] .

The dial will be brown and I intend to engrave everything by myself and see how it works;

Hands I’m thinking to use cathedral hands;

Will make the screws for the case and also the crown and crown tube.

Still not sure on the finish.

Let’s see how it goes, will be a looooooonnnngggg journey until the end.
