Broken ae1200 serves a new purpose

This is my first post in what has to be a year.

My children love looking through my watches and often want to choose one for me to wear for the day. My ae1200 is one of my absolute favorites and an easy go to for a daily wear. 

Unfortunately,  someone manged to step on this watch and busted the bars through the lugs. I was not thrilled, but instantly thought of a project. I had drawn up an ae1200 on inkscape for making my own themes and designs, so I thought why not do a design document?

This is a large printout at 14"x8" and I need to make a custom frame for it.

Just thought I would share the progress so far.

You are teaching your children very important lessons in resilience, repurposing and creativity. Good on you
