Necklace From Old/Broken Pocket Watch

In this instructable I will teach you a way to make a unique necklace out of an old/broken pocket watch.

You will need:

an old or broken pocket watch

pliers/tweezers

necklace chain

If your pocket watch is a snapback like mine, you will need to pry it open with tweezers/pliers. Turn it over and look for a small opening. Put the pointed edge of pliers in it to open the pocket watch case.

The first thing I took out was a white and gray plastic piece.

When you remove the clock face, you can get the clock hands.

Use the pliers to remove the clock hands.

Put the clock hands in the pocket watch case. You can customize the clock face by painting it or putting stickers on it. I used pliers to take off the top layer of the clock face.

I removed the watch battery and little metal parts.

After you are done removing the pocket watch pieces, place them in the case.

Put the clock face back into the pocket watch case.

I put the plastic piece back into the pocket watch so the clock face wouldn't be loose.

I snapped the back of the pocket watch on the case to close it.

Just put a necklace chain on it and you're done!
