How did you assemble the movement, dial, and hands, do you have your own tools, or do you have a watchmaker to do it for you?

That's what I learned when I went to Kentucky, and of course they have a vested interest in it. When I toured the Buffalo Trace distillery in Frankfort, KY they said "Bourbon must have a corn grain mixture of at least 51%, aged in charcoal lined oak barrels for at least two years. And be made in Kentucky". Eagle Rare is from that distillery and their premium brand Blanton's is never found on the shelves. Unless visiting Kentucky, of course. Collect the all the different bottle caps and they spell out Blantons. This one is the S

Back in one piece after some bracelet shenanigans.... took the best of two bracelets and made one decent one, then gave it a bit of a refurb. Needs a new bezel ultimately, will get round to that one day.
