C'est bien ce que je compte faire. Le decalco est assez difficile à couper net, même avec un cutter de precision.

Justement, le découper nettement - quasiment impossible...

Une croix découpée au millieux de la fenetre - avec beaucoup de precision d'un coin à l'autre, les 'triangles' du décal repliés, une lichette de colle ( à base d'eau ) sur le pourtour de la fenetre pour les maintenir en place.

Sorry - no more speaking in tongues - English is not Barts first language so the explanation was given in his mother tongue...

Did you just order a bottle of Tequila there ?

[MENTION=108254]Bart Cordell[/MENTION] man, I salute to your work. The Rolex dial is a complete PITA to replicate. I had to individually arrange the paths on each marker and text.. I'll be doing the Rolex text and submariner text another day. My eyes need rest :rofl:

the most challenging part is replicating the text, its just too damn small when i zoom in that it becomes pixelated. I have to trial and error to get them right, i am making the text individually letter by letter :O

i swear i will get cross eyes once i complete this dial

but its worth it at the end of the day - i get super sharp prints once its all done

Bart, I just ruined a 6538 gilt dial (new on the way). Looking forward to hearing when you can fix our mistakes!
