Downright inspiring. I'm not a killjoy, but I am rarely excited by these sorts of illustrative personal projects. something about this, though, really captures my attention. Especially that you intend to continue working your way through more. Many of my friends are horophiles if you happen to be taking requests.

Also, any chance of you doing a time-lapse of your process at some point?

Thanks for the encouragement. I've thought about doing a tutorial, but I hadn't considered doing a tmelapse. That could be pretty cool.

Tutorials are great, but when something comes close enough to my domain to understand it pretty well, I love a timelapse as I have those "OH! I see what you did there!" moments while getting an appreciation for the full scope of the project.

Either way, I'll be checking back regularly. Great work.

A tutorial would be wonderful. I'd actually had the idea to make something eerily similar to this for a while. I was considering something more canvas-y, but you've now got me wondering whether CSS3+SVG would be nicer.

Oh, and I love getting suggestions. Have your friends tweet me their favorite watches and I'll check them out!
