(sarcasm) Why not give us a link to your site, or a link to an article with your design on, huh? How do you know it isn't just an all-gears and all wire function?

If anybody wants a REAL one, not just a Idea drop me a line. the iron fillings wont affect the watch but the magnets that are used to make the display can wreak havoc on the mechninim…I know I built one of these 10 years ago.. the other problem is getting the hour hand and minuite hand to not interact maneticly and over power the mechinisim.
