There's only a single sunburst if there's a single light source. I intentionally try to create interesting patterns for artistic effect. A lot of my pic environments have 6 or 8 light sources. The number of bursts is a result of the number of light sources and will be the same for different dials.

Here's some examples with single light source

Here's the same characteristic demonstrated on a different dial.

So guys I will stay with ZZF. I don’t want the stress with the markers etc. The dial is good but like I said 10% for me are missing - black with a sunburst. When it’s cloudy or indoor the dial is amazing with the decent Sunburst and nearly black dial.

LOL. If this forum didn't exist, I would have just picked a dial from ebay and been happy :D

Does it look green? Check
Does it say Rolex and Submariner on it? Check
Does it have markers? Check

Life would be simpler :headdesk:

Simpler sure. But you can’t really say for sure that simpler is better. I mean, is ignorance bliss?

Well... they say ignorance is bliss, and knowledge is power. In this case, the power to both appreciate, and burden oneself with, the inextricable details of ***Rolex*** lol.

Oxford definition of inextricable: impossible to disentangle or separate. Impossible to escape from.

Haha- seems appropriate

There is an old thread where we did this alread with dials and inserts. It was before the ZZF sub and clean factory dial but I can’t help but think there is a ton of good info in there. Especially related to the BP dial.

Thinking about it it probably is not completely about dial finishing or paint. It probably comes back to one of my obsessions which is rep front openings are more wokky than gen. Ie. Gen let’s light in from different angle and volume so that causes a broader sunburst

Hey guys I just pulled the trigger for a GMF dial haha. I will risk it. If I'm not happy I will sell it but for now I want to see the GMF and ZZF in person. My question is: When I take the GMF what has my watchsmith to do to fit in the ZZF ? Cut feet? Is the GMF one larger?
