I know a few threads have come and gone with ambitious people hoping to bring these watches around.

Anyone currently manufacturing a screen/comic accurate watch? Any watches to be modded to look close? Been wanting one of these watches since I was a kid. Would love to pick one up.

I have admired your work st. louis kid. I am looking for a working watch one though. Not the TV one. Although if the price was right I would pickup one of your kits. they do look spectacular.

I offered them in the junkyard and on ebay years ago. NOOOOOOOOOObody wanted them. I ended up giving a couple away. The remaining were just castings and I actually threw them out. I thought they looked okay but I must have been wrong.

I was in talks to get some in metal but ...uh ...nevermind.

Oh well. :unsure

Check ebay as someone made them commercially at one point.

The mold is shot and I never offered kits since that is a temptation for recasters.
