Honestly on balance my favourite watch ive had!
We have a breakthrough!
The case farm guys have now made their pillows available to buy individually!

I just wish they'd put a movement a little more refined in their £500+ watches, yes the 7s26 works well but the huge variance in regulation and then difficulty in regulating is a pain. I've had...
So I just spoke to https://www.thecasefarm.co.uk/
Oddly they are about 3 miles from my workshop!
Essentially I was trying to get them to sell me some watch pillows but they were reluctant as I...
I could definitely make it with two levels, the main thing I may not have conveyed well here is that I could essentially make it to any kind of size. The design benefit of using a readily available...
So I'd say the current pocket sizes are a little luxurious (from looking at my 40mm Citizen sitting in it), they currently are sitting at an aperture size of 140x65mm, It looks to me like a size of...
And a lick of colour

Managed to whip up a pro type this morning, angles changed a bit in places as they often do as you make something for real! Picked up that divider system and it was very nice to work with, the finish...
Hey Dave, thanks so much for your insight,
I love what you did with the leather on the top, I was thinking too about making a feature panel of the lid - initally Formica was the idea but I could...

An idea of what those PVC dividers with a foam bed would look like, thinking on the pillows.
It's a valid question! Based on past experience I think they will be just fine :)
The Birch plywood we buy is all E1 rated, meaning it contains incredibly low levels of formaldehyde versus cheap plywood or MDF,
You'll actually find that nearly all timber and many natural things...
Oh yes, I figured this would be where my main thinking would have to be,
It's a little tricky because where I can I'd like to be able to make the entire thing myself - even the watch pillows. When...
Evening all,
The title may seem a little odd, the word 'viable' can be used in a variety of ways but in this case it's the idea of making a product that's financially viable.
Basically, I'm a...
I had an issue with a 6R15 that I think was a couple of years old, it was suffering from very low amplitude (sub 250 if I remember correctly) and was giving very inconsistent timing,
I replaced it...
Tapered edge for tape jointing + easifill the gaps (ensure you actually orient the tapered edges correctly when installing). Square edge for skimming over the top of by a plastered.
Tapered...

Nick mankey Design’s strap, about as comfy as a watch can be

My brother and I received (it's in the bank) the £10,000 for our workshop premises based on the fact we are eligible for small rate relief, was very smooth and easy to do, hope it can be all the same...
Also look on Serious Watches in the Netherlands,
Next day postage and no VAT to pay, they also stock most Orient models
Not a new arrival at all, but a new bezel on my black d1 from my yellow one!

Scurfa every time, simply put its by far the most well built watch under £1000 that I've tried, including a load of the budget swiss ones
