Let me know if there is another must have watch I should make!

Print profiles

To print a watch, you need to print from multiple print profiles!

Every watch uses the same:

• Case
• Stand

Then there is a printprofile for each of the different watches, this is where the dial, hands, crown and watch specifik extra parts are.

The watches

All the watches share the same datewheel (for now), insert the crown and then press on the stopper. 

After this, just place the datewheel in its slot and add your dial (face).  Insert the clock kit (with the rubber attached on the clocks axel) and screw on the nut. 

Follow the assembly guide if you want to add the stand.

Rolex Submariner Date

To build this watch have a look at the “Assembly Guide”. 

I printed with Bambulab Gold Silk PLA, Bambulab PLA Basic Black, Bambulab Matte PLA Red, and a generic white PLA.

There is a variant uploaded without the date window (but no print profile for that dial).

Omega Semaster Aqua Terra 007

Warning, you need a clean plate! I think 0.2mm nozzle is a must have.

The indicators need to be glued on. The second hand should be able to press on a “dissasembeld” normal second hand, but I had som problems so I just glued it on the head from the broken second hand :)

Grand Seiko

For this watch you will need to press on the indicators. I did not have to use glue, your milage may wary. Other than that, its straight forward.

I printed with Generic Silver Silk PLA, Bambulab PLA Basic Black, and a generic white PLA.

Tudor

This watch is the simplest of them all, no extra parts. Only the dial, hands and crown are uniqe.

I printed with Bambulab Gold Silk PLA, Bambulab PLA Basic Black, and a generic white PLA.

Nozzle size

I strongly reccomend a 0.2mm nozzle for the dial (face)!

It is possible to use 0.4mm, but it won't look as good:

Modifying the hands hole size

To change the hands hole, just set the negative space to the desired dimensions like this:

The size is perfect for bambulabs offical kit, but for the ones I got from amazon I needed to use these values:

• Hour hand hole = 5.57
• Minute hand hole = 3.74

The Stands

There are two versions of the stand, the modular and the fixed.

The modular stand

Build your own! Perfect if you want a small part on the top of the watch.

The fixed stand

A more stable and no assembly choice. Now there are a file for a longer stand “Fixed Stand Long - BraceletStand.step”, use this one if you want it really stable or plan to have a bracelet on the top part (makes the normal stand a bit unstable with the extra weigth).
