Successfully welded tube.. Accumulator acid is a great thing. I bought acid for refilling the accumulator, 38% acid, in the auto parts store.. I put a glass container in the pot with water into which I poured the acid.. I put everything on the fire.. When the water boiled, it heated the acid.. and then I put the case inside for a few minutes.. Later rinsed and lightly polished.. Thanks Tanukjaju, Fizz and EP. for advice

Nice build! Custom dial?
The dial came from the offer that River made some days ago. I adapted a back plate from an Alli dial, lumed and painted the text.

Eta 6497 salvaged from a longines pocket watch, dial by Belkin, 47 mm chinese case.
Shark strap.
Took me a little to swap the seconds wheel out for a shorter wheel.
I am in search for signed crown now... Anyone?
