Hello I picked up this beautiful pocket watch.
I don't think I can take it apart for a build.

Will keep it as it is :DImageImageImage

Don't worry. I started a build already just waiting for some missing parts ;)

Great thread, glad you restarted it from HF1.0.

Did you get this on eBay? If so I was almost going to bid against you. Good thing I bailed, would hate to cost either of us more money.

Which brings up another great thread at HF1.0 regarding "Please don't bid on my item" so we don't screw each other.

Haha just saw the badges. Feeling old now :wave:

Putting this in a dresswatch case would be an option :?:

Picked this up from a german watchforum. But we definitely need the "Please don't bid on my item" thread over here :thumbup:
