So long as you do it for the love and have no intention of resale, it’s just another project. Run with it. Probably you’ll find some small part is so crazy expensive/easily damaged that you wish you hadn’t started.
Do it.

How would this be an alternative to saving up for a complete watch? It’s not like you can stick a set of hands and a dial to your wrist whilst you’re saving up for the case and movement

Will it be any cheaper in the end? Doing it for the joy of a ‘custom’ watch you built yourself?
Bear in mind the resale value probably won’t match your receipts for parts.
