Originally started out as being a casing to put my old pebble time into, but it ended up being more of a container/pillbox than a pocketwatch casing which is why I left the loop for the watch chain off - You could add it easily enough.
Prints in 2 sections ;
Upper Half / Lid - I recommend you print this as orientated with supports.
I got a good result using a support thickness of 40% less which made them easy to remove and left the patterned surface on top which results in the fine detail looking nice.
Lower Half - Print any way you want - The curve on the bottom shouldn't need supports, but you might need it depending on your printer.
I used supports for the hinges - but I'm not sure it's necessary.
Tolerances are a bit generous which means it should come out reasonably well on most FDM printers.
Hinge pin - I designed this to use a length of 1.75mm Filament as a hinge.
A spot of glue at each end of the hinges should keep it in place while allowing the hinge to work.
Note: there is some reinforcing around where the hinge joins lid and base - I hate hinges ok ?
Designed in TinkerCad.
Pattern - Hand drawn in Sketchbook Pro for the iPad.
