Another watch made, and many lessons learned

For any aspiring watch modders out there, here’s a quick list of some lessons learned after putting together this watch.

Thanks for reading and hope you like my work.

- Less is more on a dial.
- Small details matter way more in macro photography.
- Paint behaves completely different once it cures under light.
- Green is harder to get right than expected.
- Alignment is everything on watch assembly.
- Every material reacts differently to engraving settings.
- Tiny imperfections stand out fast on watches.
- Patience matters more than expensive tools.
- Good lighting can completely change how the watch feels.
- You learn more from finishing a watch than endlessly planning one.
- Building watches is basically problem solving for hours straight.
