With this in mind, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@NanoRobotGeek\">NanoRobotGeek on YouTube<\/a> grabbed an Apple Watch <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Series<\/a> 1 (the original) and opted to make it into an actual, mechanical watch using a Seiko NH38 watch movement, the frame and bands of the Apple Watch, and other miscellaneous parts.<\/p>\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"B2h5WwrkJFg\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/B2h5WwrkJFg\/hqdefault.jpg');\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"lty-playbtn\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"lyt-visually-hidden\">Play Video<\/span><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/lite-youtube>\n<p>The result? A smartwatch that\u2019s not smart anymore, but can continue functioning for a few years longer \u2014 and is not subject to whether or not Apple says it\u2019s obsolete. Of course, with it being an actual watch, the most that you can do on it is see the time. But it\u2019s completely fully functioning, and to be fair, it\u2019s also pretty stylish.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no Rolex, but it keeps the essence of the Apple Watch and you don\u2019t even have to worry about its battery life. To me, that\u2019s a win-win.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instructables.com\/Mechanical-Apple-Watch-From-Real-E-Waste-Apple-Wat\/\">Instructables<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-content --><br \/>\n<!-- .entry-footer --><\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
