I'm not sure if this was already done before. But I'm hoping to see some cool / funky / unique / weird lugs! Let me get the ball rolling with these twisted lugs from my SM 300 and UG Polerouter Date:

I see what you did there..

I believe that there are some funky Russian lugs missing here. 😀
Kirovskie from the late 50s.

I also like how the hour markers match the lugs

I've never seen this thread before! Anyway, there's one watch that passed through my hands this year that had such a wonderful shape. It sold within an hour of my getting it home and was collected that evening ... one of the last hurrahs of large scale English watch making, this is a Smiths Pre-De Luxe:

I can't remember if I even wore it but I'll make you a deal: next time that I pull one out of an auction for £10, you can buy it and tell me 😉
