It works too! I fit a movement in behind the face.

I didn't design this print. I modified the one that can be found here to feature my dad's initials on the watch face: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:619550

How do we really know that's a giant watch, and OP didn't just get a bunch of miniature tools to trick us!

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 21 points 4 months ago

Ya! OP's a big fat phony! Even made a miniature watch to try and fool us!

Didn't you post this a couple of days ago? How come you deleted it?

[–] PancakeTrebuchet@lemmy.world 30 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The mods deleted it because it didn't include "[OC]" as a prefix.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 25 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Well that's pretty weird given you can edit titles

[–] PancakeTrebuchet@lemmy.world 21 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't know what to tell you. I'm sorry if this has negatively impacted your day in any way.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Sorry if it came across like it, but I'm not having a go at you or anything

I just think the mod deleting a post for what could have been a title change is kinda odd behaviour from them, perhaps they didn't know it was possible? 🤷‍♂️

Lemmy mods love deleting shit that can easily be fixed, it's a weird vestige of their time on Reddit.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

As a rule, mods have very little in their life. Exerting power here is peaking.

Holdovers from reddit, I would assume.

If it's too big, he can get a link taken out

I just watched the episode of Community where a guy makes this exact mistake and never gets the giant matching fist he needs.

Now you just need a

giant hand

To go with your

giant watch

This is so cool!

[–] Incendiro@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Important question: Does the bezel turn?

[–] PancakeTrebuchet@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Sadly, it does not.

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

That is a really thoughtful gift. I'm sure your dad deserves this love from you. :)

What movement does this "watch" have?

[–] PancakeTrebuchet@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Some $11 thing off amazon that's powered by a AA
