Watch Part Panache

[Mapster]

Teamed up with CaptG to make this beautiful watch part Panache. Black carbon fiber on the bottom, white fiberglass fiber on the top. It sports an Omega face and a wide variety of parts on the top. To finish it up I switched the section with a fountain section from a jr gent 2 and added a heritance nib.


Special thanks to CaptG for working with me on this one. He will always approach a project with a can do attitude and always finds a way to get it done!


Sorry about the pictures, I have lots to learn in that field! All comments and critiques appreciated...

Very nice job on that pen by the both of you.

I knew a Panache was good for something! Super job!

I thought the same thing Jim! The Panache is a difficult kit to use, most people don't like it, and it doesn't look good with very many materials, I thought it would make you focus on the watch parts and not the "bling" of the kit in this case.

Now that's a "kool tool."

I normally don't like resurrecting threads but this one is actually exactly what I'm looking to do on a customer's request. Was it a straight conversion to a Junior Gent 2 front section?

Wonderful pen! Cudos to both of you!

I would like to make a watch pen for myself. How can I get in contact with this CaptG?

I think that's the 1st panache pen that I actually like.

I like the idea, and it came out good. Only thing i can observe is the on the end of the pen, where you can really tell there's a clear coating around the carbon fiber. Unfortunately, that pen doesn't give you much of a choice though. The tube is straight, but you need to leave a decent amount of room on the end to give the bottom a propper look. All that being said, it still looks good.

Very nice pen.

Just a suggestion, if you set the hands at 10:10 it won't obscure the branding on the watch face
