Product Designer – CAD for Watch Case (CNC + Waterproofing + Tolerances) Ended

About the job

I’m designing a custom watch case and need a Product designer or mechanical CAD engineer to help refine it for real-world production. The goal is to create a CNC-ready 3D model that’s structurally sound, waterproof, and manufactured to tight tolerances.

You don’t need watch industry experience, but must be highly skilled in:

Engineering for tight tolerances (±0.02 mm)

Designing waterproof enclosures (gaskets, crystal sealing, casebacks)

Creating models that work in metal with real machining constraints

What You’ll Get from Me:
Design intent for part layout, aesthetics, and assembly

A 3d model showing the look that i want.

Aim of final dimensions of every detail, full guide on watch design



Your Role:
Refine my case design for engineering precision

Build the 3D model to match dimensions closely — not a creative reinterpretation

Add necessary engineering details to ensure:

Waterproofing (gasket seats, crown sealing, screw threads)

Mechanical strength and part fit

CNC machinability

Suggest only what’s needed to make it structurally or functionally perfect

Deliverables:
CNC-ready 3D CAD file (STEP / IGES)

Properly split case parts: mid-case, bezel, caseback, crown tube, etc.

Optional: 2D technical drawings with tolerances (bonus)

Required Experience:
Precision mechanical parts (small enclosures, electronics, tooling, etc.)

Waterproof/sealed product design

Machining constraints and tolerance planning

SolidWorks,... read more
