    This is covered in Claudeish, had to stop reading. I have to read enough of this at work...<p>&gt;What sits behind them is a calibre I had to solve the way a real one is solved, and this is why I bother.<p>&gt;A skeleton is a load-bearing machine with the metal taken away down to the last safe gram, so what is left is whatever carries a force, and no spoke is wider than its job.<p>&gt;Running and buildable are different questions, and the second is harder.<p>&gt;A drawn movement is a claim. Before anything gets a surface, I test it as a machine.<p>If this isn&#x27;t Claude-prose then the author has been reading too much of it...<p>(oh, Pangram gives the entire thing 100%)

      I didn&#x27;t recognize Claude but the thing was unreadable and after a while I figured out it must be AI.

      Give them some grace. The author is a Czech developer likely using AI to help write in a second language or translating.

        If the whole thing is written by AI, then I wouldn&#x27;t say that it was just &quot;helping&quot;. Author could write it in their native language and then use AI to translate it - the result would be very different.<p>The movement does look pretty neat. I&#x27;m not into watches, but it&#x27;s impressive that purely rendered thing was designed to be realistic.

    Interesting, but title is missing the key word &quot;Garmin&quot;.<p>&quot;How I build a mechanical Garmin watch face: a real gear train for a watch with no gears&quot;
