    Awesome post and love people taking the time to write up their watchmaking stories. I've owned all 3 and still have 2 Pogues and my UFO. Like you, I found the Bullhead hung off the wrist and no...

    Thanks for the input all, some very interesting things to consider. Having not worn one on my wrist before, it is a fair point about the lugs. I've worn a few bigger watches and got on with them...

    Thanks for the kind words and it's good to be reminded of the effort I put in, though some of it was other kind people answering WTBs and being in the right place at the right time. I'd never...

    Thanks for the comments and advice, I have to admit the watch box 'holes' is a factor but I was tempted just to build another one. The first was a trial anyway and I have a few new tools to play...

    For my fountain pen, I swear by the old favourite of Moleskin. Never bought from Andy's Pens before - I bought my Rotring pencil from Cultpens. Great service

    Great post and will be interesting to see how it progresses. Personally I do like a bit of patina on the hands, so will be good to see what you do next. They really are fantastic watches.
