Model 1 Darkhorse
Description
This is a watch body that I designed around an affordable movement for beginners. The Chinese ETA clone 2650 watch movement is a skeletonized watch movement from one of the most ubiquitous Swiss mechanical movements in history. Take immense satisfaction of this tiny little wrist-mounted engine as it ticks away keeping fairly good time over the course of its charge. You are welcome to make any changes/improvements to this design. I look forward with what the 3D printing community can contribute to this build. One thing I particularly look forward to is the variety of bezel designs. I've tried to leave this base as open to interpretation as possible while still maintaining a unique style. I am not an expert nor have I really touched a watch prior to this project beyond replacing a battery. I bought an affordable watch repair kit and after watching a few hours of videos/reading a few books on fundamentals of horology, I felt confident enough in roughing out a watch body based on this affordable movement. I will add more details about post printing shortly. I started in on the process and lost my steps after the computer went to sleep. agghhh!!
