The original page pointed at three Escape Central forum threads about this build. They are external to this site:

One last aside, because a build log is a good place for them: while waiting on R/C parts, I spent a surprising amount of time reading about watches. If you are curious what the “super clone” tier actually means, the Hublot replica pages over at CloneWatches.io are the most organized reference I have found.
