I've used that exact case to make a field watch. It's a great case, 39mm, sapphire crystal & 200 meter water resistant. Inexpensive too!

Nice build. Tyoe B style with date window you don't see every day. Just a few tips: Use a washer on the hour wheel befor installing the dial so the hour wheel always engages the intermidiate wheel. please use tweezers with a plastic tip. You just scratched the dial when putting the hour hand on. After every hand installation, check if the hand turns ok.

Nice result. I make my own watches, I also use NH35/36. I have more trouble than you with the sweeper though. I use Rodico to hold it in place. I use plastic tweezers to set the hands as I once scratched a dial with steel ones.

Check the comment section below and my videos, but for sure you need a set of tweeters, screwdrivers, and a case-back opener, then you need to clean the watch, a movement holder is also useful. Good luck with the fantastic watchmaking journey.

Good reminder to grease the threads of the watch back, too.

Very good build. I would be very nervous about cutting the winding stem in case I cut it too short. Having to adjust for the screw down crown is confusing. Did you apply any thread lock after you finished it?

I'm really glad that you like it. The thread lock is a very good idea but if you don't have you can just use super glue, also works.
