Making a Watch.
The centre ring needs two sets of lugs for the strap pin to attach to. The lugs need to angle somewhat, so as to wrap around the wrist. I'm not too sure what angle to use, so I've chosen 10° for this watch. As with all of this watch design, I'll feedback any alterations into the next iteration through the design.
