Recycled, Steampunk Watch

 This DOES NOT WORK. If you have a broken watch and 30-45 minutes you can steampunk it, and give it as a gift. This is meant for a shelf, because it does not tell time. Also, I made this with rck_mtn_climber.

Step 1 Parts

 wire 
pliers / wire cutters
broken watch
hot glue gun
silver and gold paint

Someone once said "you can't just stick screws on something and call it Steampunk". That aside, what aspects of this make it "steam-" as opposed to "cyber-" (which it looks more like)?

not only that, but most(steam or cyber) have some amount of functionality....

Now looky here -273c, art doesnt need to do anything but evoke an emotional response.

Very clever.
But this is not labeled as art, at least nowhere my mortal eyes can see.

Even if the emotional response is anger at the author using words wrong?

 Im not sure how many on this side of the pond understand the steampunk style or its rules, I know I don't. I do however enjoy the creations. While this construction may not qualify as steampunk I think the "ible" itself is well done with lots of clear pics showing each step (ok some not so clear but what the heck..) I DO consider this a form of recycle sculpture and while it stands on its own it would be really cool incorporated into a larger project
