I'm thinking about making a mold of the compuchron watch body I have. It would be replicated in a red translucent resin so the modeler could mask off the watch face and paint it gold or silver and the keys black.
The body would be made to accept a real watch band (22mm). I looked into finding appropriate watch bands, but they are proving difficult to find. So I figured that at a decent price for the body, folks would be willing to locate their own bands.
Considering that an original (even a non-working example) goes for several hundred dollars on ebay, a casting of the body for $20 would be a heck of a deal.
Who's up?
