Okay …

Here is, what i came so far… There is still a lot of work to do but looks good already…

In Comparison:

What do you think?

Now i grab my beloved wife and do some Photo-Safari in the Macro-World of insectoids… We have really wonderful weather at the moment in Germany.

:slight_smile:

@Tomas:

You could separate a few more gears if you like to?

My next steps will be:

  • Restore more background.

  • Free the transparent areas.

  • separate some height layers.

Good Morning @chadwgraves37 :wink:

this should be enough “material” right now for assembling a great looking working watch face:

Great work, @Tomas!

Can you make a nice „Amanda“ ?

We wanted to replace it with the the Stührling Brand name, remember?

We are a good team, aren‘t we?

Unbelievable, but this thread is the 4th most discussed (replies) topic in the whole Facer Community history already :wink:

Hi @GAUSS. Sure we are a great team and community!

However, no idea, what do you mean with “Amanda”? :slight_smile:

According to possible free non-commercial publication of this “digital replica” I contacted the Stührling Headquarters in New York yesterday in order to get an official OK for this nice cooperation project.

@Tomas Amanda is Chad’s beloved’s name. Earlier in the thread @GAUSS suggested putting her name on it :wink:

All of you guys: This is the 100% most awesomest thread I’ve seen EVER!! Truly amazing to see the teamwork and care being put into it. :thumbsup:

@Tomas
Perfect Logos - we do them on an upper level, that they could drop shadows…

Do you have another spring, more dense, for the upper left gear?

133

@GAUSS, I think this one could be usable…

134

@tomas - remember to remove the Stuhrling name.
Sorry guys I’m traveling on business this week - I’ll be in and out.

@Tomas

Yeah, that´s a great dense spring.

I have some more work to do to free the backgrounds. Not an easy task…
It´s a lot of improvisation…

:wink:

@jmorga106

You´re welcome. We know that you want to help and appreciate it.

Life and work goes first.

137

and that’s a good thing…hee hee.

138

Yeah. I love it! Fodder for my brain and challenge for my skills.

Facing is fun!

139

@Tomas

I could use some help.

Need another base gear on the upper right side…

@GAUSS is this really a gear? I was thinking that`s only a kind of fixation plate* for the spring… Anyway you will get it in few minutes :wink:

@jmorga106 I hope we will get an OK from Stührling, NY in this project. Alternatively we will surely find a way how to finish it.

*there is definitely a HUGE difference between building a digital watch face and a real one :wink:
