One of a Kind Countdown: 2 weeks to go!

Well, it's about 2 weeks to go until I'll be at the One of a Kind Xmas Show. Things are coming together but of course, just like always, I think everything is going to come down to the last minute. I always worry that I'm not going to get everything finished that I've set out to do but it always seems to come together in the end. I've been especially ambitious this time around trying to complete 16 new watches for the show and it may be this goal which will be my undoing. As of right now I have 12 watches that should definitely be finished. Here are a couple snaps of the dials in progress:

I've got a mix of some new designs with some designs from my sterling silver watches. I thought I'd bring a couple of those designs over to my stainless steel watches to show that my watches are very customizable.

In terms of the customization available, it can be as simple as swapping one strap out for another or putting in a different movement or as complex as designing a new dial from scratch. I could even go so far as to make a case and dial for you, like the special client who is getting this watch:

This watch is made from sterling silver and has a 14k yellow gold dial and dial ring. The dial ring is hand engraved with a unique pattern. The dial will also have diamond markers and the case bezel is set with 60 diamonds. The strap pictured is genuine crocodile, but that may not be the final selection. This watch obviously is not finished yet, but it will be, and be at the show for your viewing pleasure. It won't be for sale, but if you'd like something similar, I can make that happen.

So it looks like for the next couple weeks I'm not going to be getting much sleep as I have loads to do, but I'll be at the show starting November 29th in booth # O-35. Please come by and say hi!

I'm still running my ticket giveaway, all you have to do to enter is follow me on Twitter (@wilkdesigns) or like my Facebook page (Wilk Watchworks and Jewellery Designs). Draw will be happening next weekend(Sunday Nov 20th at 5pm EST) regardless of whether or not I reach the goal of 100 followers on twitter or facebook. Good luck!
