Four beauts there Johnny.:thumbs::thumbs:
Question.. Is there much meat on the watchpart blanks i.e. have you much to turn off?

They were around 18mm , i turned them down with about 2mm to spare then finished off with abranet & micro mesh , did not want to turn too close to the finished size because i was scared of ruining them. 3 turned like a knife through butter , one was a little more tougher to turn ??
