    Was it a kit or did you source the parts separately?

    I had built a similar one with the same dial couple of years ago just didn't like the case so sold that one and just picked up the parts here and there.. movement off the bay, hands and dial from one source and the case from Ofrei

    You know I've always sort of considered doing something like this, but with a really nice custom dial, I've got this box full of vintage ivory (not modern, vintage) that I was given by a former pawnbroker who can't sell the stuff for obvious reasons, and I've always thought wouldn't it be amazing to have something unique as an ivory dial, properly finished in a custom watch, something that nobody else would ever have.

    Thats a good idea. I don't know how ivory reacts cutting in thin layers but I guess its possible
