AK002 is my larger 42 mm angular sport watch. I wanted the deep woven-texture blue dial to become the centerpiece: its color shifts with the lighting, showing different shades of blue as the watch moves. The strong hour markers and fine red seconds detail add contrast to the substantial octagonal case.
I paired this 42 mm case with a fitted black rubber strap and folding clasp, creating a more relaxed look than the integrated-bracelet models. A genuine TMI NH35 automatic movement powers the watch. I assembled and evaluated this individual piece in New York, and the gallery shows the actual watch offered in my eBay listing.

With AK005, I wanted to revisit the octagonal design in a smaller package. The 39 mm case has a different balance from my larger builds, and the textured blue dial became the natural centerpiece. I chose a larger white AK emblem for the dial and a bright red-tipped seconds hand to give the watch a recognizable identity without making it overly busy.
I fitted a genuine NH35 automatic movement behind a sapphire crystal and paired the case with its integrated metal bracelet. My favorite part is how the more compact proportions bring the case, dial and bracelet together as one design. I am checking its running behavior as part of the build process, so please use the eBay listing to confirm current availability and final sale details.

AK001 is my 40 mm field-inspired build, built around the easy legibility of a black 3–6–9 dial. I chose a smooth polished bezel, a stainless-steel bracelet, and a more prominent white AK emblem. The silver-toned hour and minute hands and slender red seconds hand give it the distinctive character you can see in my newest photographs.
I wear this watch as a personal workshop piece. It has taught me a great deal about movement fitting, stem alignment, dial positioning and the careful patience involved in assembling mechanical parts. The homepage clock is a digital demonstration based on its real dial design; AK001 remains a coming-soon build rather than a finished watch for sale.

AK004 takes a very different approach: a silver-tone diver-style case, black rotating bezel, black dial and a contrasting red seconds hand. I like the contrast between the bright metal finish and the darker tool-watch details, especially compared with the stealthy all-black look of AK003.
The 40 mm preview uses a silver-tone case, steel bracelet, black dial, rotating black bezel and a red seconds hand. I have added real front-side and exhibition-caseback photographs, alongside separately labeled presentation illustrations. The final movement and sale specifications are still being evaluated.
