Posted 12 hours ago

Worldwide

Summary

I'm looking for an experienced Mechanical Engineer / SolidWorks CAD Designer with experience in watch design or precision mechanical products. The base CAD model is already completed in SolidWorks. I need someone to review the existing design and finalize it so it is ready for manufacturing. This is not a project from scratch. Your job is to refine the current model, complete the missing engineering details, and update the technical drawings. Scope of work: Review the existing SolidWorks assembly and parts. Verify and refine the movement seat for the ETA 2892-A2 movement. Check radial and axial clearances. Verify internal height and rotor clearance. Finalize the front crystal seat and exhibition caseback. Design the gasket grooves for front and back sealing. Create the screw-down caseback thread. Design/refine the crown tube and ensure compatibility with ETA 2892-A2. Complete a custom crown based on an Armillary sphere concept with a sapphire stone insert. Ensure the design targets approximately 5 ATM water resistance. Update all production-ready technical drawings with missing dimensions, tolerances, and section views. Deliver clean, fully editable SolidWorks files together with STEP files and updated drawings. Requirements: Strong SolidWorks experience. Experience with watch cases, precision mechanical assemblies, or similar products. Understanding of machining tolerances, threads, O-ring/gasket sealing, and Design for Manufacturing (DFM). Ability to review an existing design and improve it instead of starting over. Please include examples of similar mechanical or watch-related projects you've worked on. If you've designed watch cases, crowns, or other precision components before, I'd be happy to see your portfolio.
