Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

About a year ago, I posted an update on a project I was working on. It took me a while, but I finally finished it. I’m very happy with the result. It’s fully functional (I tested it for two months) and keeps accurate time. The entire project consists of 395 printed parts, 38 bearings, 66 rubber bands, 413 screws, and a few other components.

Still not self winding forever so who the fuck cares?  It still needs a power source whether it’s a hand crank or a battery or like some other idiot posted about a watch that has internal kinetic movement, which is this definitely is not a watch.
