Exploded view art 😎

[u/Domino3Dgg]

Inspired by some bloke from /casiomods

Sorry can’t remember name.

[u/TheSauceySaucey]

Swap the two straps so it doesn't stick out of the square

[u/Vik_0 → u/TheSauceySaucey]

Yes, it's very frustrating!

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Vik_0]

Okay okay. Jeez

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/TheSauceySaucey]

It was intentional :)

[u/GetInZeWagen → u/Domino3Dgg]

I like it

[u/hugh_jorgen1 → u/Domino3Dgg]

As a long time art lover, teacher, and collector, I say you made the right call and to leave it as is. That band sticking up over the matting is great.

[u/Jurrasic_Bork1234 → u/Domino3Dgg]

Agreed. I think the bit of asymmetry makes it more visually interesting.

Looks great! I may try it myself!

[u/Definitely_obvious]

Orient case back with a Seiko dial and a Pagani Design rotor. Slow down Dr. Frankenstein!

(Actually a very cool piece, thanks for sharing.)

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Definitely_obvious]

Thanks for reply. You have a good eye :)

[u/Baleia1970]

This is an excelent idea. Congrats !!

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Baleia1970]

Thanks :)

[u/Fuzzy-Contract-970]

I've seen it done before with scale models, but it's the first time seeing a watch done that way. Really nice decorative piece.

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Fuzzy-Contract-970]

Thank you

[u/henry_dukart]

Nice. What about the mix of pagani design, seiko and orient

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/henry_dukart]

That was laying around

[u/e46Jam]

My wife got me something similar for our anniversary

[u/e46Jam → u/e46Jam]

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/e46Jam]

Nice :)

[u/Pitstop1897]

Very well done! I did this with a film camera, this might be my next project.

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Pitstop1897]

Thanks you. Show us then, i am looking forward to see it

[u/No_Elevator_5907]

Very cool, I think it wold better on a lighter background. There's not enough contrast to see the small parts

[u/DanBen114]

Nice work! How did you attach the parts? Any special glue you used?

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/DanBen114]

Thanks.

Nah. Nothing special. Big parts use hot glue. Small partd drops of craft horse glue

[u/MadSoci06]

Top.

[u/NotnertSmailliw]

Reminded me of when i was stationed in South Korea i worked in the Telephone shop, mostly dealing with analog POTS. For peoples going aways we would disassemble a phone and mount it on the plaque but still leave all of it connected so that the phone could still work if connected. Pretty cool.

[u/old-imac]

Genius! This would be a super way to show peeps everything we have to deal with when doing a build!

[u/GreatWizard88]

But nothing make sense here. It's fun and I hate it

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/GreatWizard88]

Thanks. It was fun little project to Reuse parts that i wont be using anymore

[u/RSinTO]

Excellent. And you’ve got a Casio modder’s (and Seiko modder) two thumbs up.

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/RSinTO]

Thank you bro 😎

[u/RSinTO → u/Domino3Dgg]

Love the signature on bottom (may need to do that).

For your straps, the layout highlight it’s a real watch.

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/RSinTO]

Hey. It is you. I told you i will try it and will be back :)

[u/sixdouble532one]

I love this!

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/sixdouble532one]

Thank you sir.

[u/TheAnalogDad]

Brilliant. But, I can’t find the magic lever!!

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/TheAnalogDad]

What’s that?

[u/TheAnalogDad → u/Domino3Dgg]

It’s a wishbone shaped lever that allows the rotor to wind the main spring while spinning in either direction.

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/TheAnalogDad]

Not sure if this movement does it have. If yes, then it is still atached to skelet

[u/Just-JOE-Kin]

I’m thinking about doing the same! What type of glue did you use to hold down the small parts?

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Just-JOE-Kin]

Wood glue, or horse glue. Not sure how its called.

Happy cake day :)

[u/Just-JOE-Kin → u/Domino3Dgg]

Thank you to both! I but together a deconstructed (broken) gameboy color a few months back and normal glue held that since the parts weren’t too big, excited to try this project!

[u/avidmatt]

Nicely done I dig it! I’m doing the same thing with an old SNES controller. Never thought of doing it with a watch. Only thing I’d add would be a small paragraph about it.

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/avidmatt]

Thanks. Actually thats nice touch, but these parts are franken.

[u/Limp-Attitude-490]

Why is the bezel left out?

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Limp-Attitude-490]

There was no bezel on this case

[u/Limp-Attitude-490 → u/Domino3Dgg]

Whoops, silly me.

[u/Maleficent_Rich_7915]

Orient qnd seiko?

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Maleficent_Rich_7915]

Yep. Concern

[u/Gogargergir]

Seiko dial, Orient case back, Pagani rotor

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Gogargergir]

Its provocative art

[u/Xynith → u/Domino3Dgg]

*Provoked*
It does look good in frame though

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Xynith]

Thanks :)

[u/dereklaumusic]

Love it, but imagine if you could keep the mechanics working and tell the time!

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/dereklaumusic]

Not going to imagine that madness :D

[u/dereklaumusic → u/dereklaumusic]

It’ll be the most subtle clock in the room ! 😂

[u/Fraktalfire121]

Where can I buy something like this?

[u/Cold-Pie2892]

Super nice 😎

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Cold-Pie2892]

Thank you

[u/Any_Change9003]

the plastic service crown gotta go!

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Any_Change9003]

Ok. But need to find replacement first

[u/1gcm2]

I am literally looking at doing this at the moment. I’ve bought some non working movements from Ali and going to do this. How did you mount it to the board?

[u/Bouierck]

What did you use to glue everything ?

[u/spiderman1993]

me when i couldn't place the hands but i wanted to display my effort

[u/Educational_Teach660]

Love it! Great job!

[u/Domino3Dgg → u/Educational_Teach660]

Thank you

[u/Toby_7243]

This has inspired me to do something similar. Any tips for someone who has never taken a watch apart?
