    Hand engraved watch - Seiko 5

    Hi everyone, this is my personal watch. I have been learning to hand engrave in my free time. It is an intricate art done under a microscope. I'm glad at how this Seiko 5 turned out . I hope you enjoy the pictures

    The style isn't for me, but it's an impressive feat you've pulled off, and good pictures too.


    Oh, and welcome to the forum :)

    Excellent work. I wouldn't want it on my watch but it would look right at home on a shotgun.

    Great skill! Not necessarily for me, but I'm sure this would be popular with many ladies.

    That's an excellent piece of work.

    I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.

    You’ve either got a lot of free time, or you’re a natural. Either way, that is bloody good work! Well done, sir!

    Nicely done.
    But didn’t you get a bit bored after you engraved the first few links the same?

    Very impressive. I really like the style as well. Did you choose the Seiko 5 as a relatively cheep first project? If so, any plans for any more brands?

    Very cool, and I suppose there is no real limit to subject matter and design. I have no idea how long it takes, but if it's days rather than weeks you could have a lovely little business going there. Brilliant!

    I think you did a hell of a job. Must have taken you ages to do it. Well done.

    Very impressive work - I think this might be the nicest design I’ve seen. The curlicue work on some can be a little OTT for my taste but this looks discreet and quite classy.
