I posted this a while ago and was working on it and put it aside. I was cleaning up and pulled it out of mothballs. I got the wiring done and used an old watch display so I could mount a watch inside. This started out as a clock I grabbed at one of the TJX stores. I took the clock out removed the crystal and hinged it to the helmet added a light that I outsourced from a table lamp I got at the $ Store. It was pretty cool because it had a touch switch with three brightness settings. I drilled the base that I scratch built added a 3/4 " rod so I could operate the switch. I added a couple mirrors I scrounged out of a scanner so the ligh would be not just back lighting the watch but reflected to the front. I need to polish the plastic a bit.20201015_133644-1.jpg20201015_133653-1.jpg20201015_133703-1.jpg20201015_133741-1.jpg
 
Thanks guys eventually I will put an actual dive watch in it for display. I wore the Wenger that day so it was handy.
