… A bunch of these were in a basket as freebies on the bathroom counter.

I departed the clinic with bulging pants pockets. Feeling a bit of “greed guilt” though. However I still left some in the basket for others.

By the way… I don’t wear contacts.

It was true serendipity, as I also left with a new prescription that will help me a lot as I work my way through using these klepto proceeds.

….Next stage is the metal work.

I’ve found that I just really enjoy working on these and seeing how far they evolve from their harsh yellows and bright whites to a nice warm, aged panna cotta vibe.

These will be in my next email drop/newsletter. If you’d like to be included please send an email to watchworkscustoms@icloud.com

I’m also wrapping up an Albino Explorer in an OC case that has been fully engraved and stamped. It also sports a viet 7206 bracelet. It’s spoken for but definitely worth sharing.
