The only feasible option would be an overspray with a matte finish. But that always affects the raised gloss of the subdial print naturally.

Assuming one could abide that, it could work without having to reprint the numbers and hash marks? I ask because if I could do that with my mystery cartel dial, the rest of it is fine and I wouldn’t have to spend the coin for an MQ dial and a st-19 mod to fit gen spec.

Yes, absolutely. A cartel dial doesn’t have the correct subdial position for the hour counter register at 6:00 though.

The watch has landed (well, losing a sec hand along the way but it made it halfway around the globe!).
Cosmograph4Ever Now the watch and its future is in your hands! Please make it a good one!

Quick update since it has been a while.
Looks like we are possibly moving a tad forward with the build, Cosmograph4Ever has sent me these pics of the progress. The wait is the worst part of this game but I hope it will be worth it

Marked in black on the trainwheel- and chronograph bridge are the areas that had to be removed to get access to the screw posts on the mainplate that sit on the right level for a rolex case for the case clamp screws. I have reshaped the 2 bridges today and added nicely chamfered bevels all around the edges for some extra glamour.

This is really nice, those sub dial hands are the best I’ve ever seen if they’re not gen.

I am not really into PN dials but this dial looks quality! Great subdial print, fonts etc! Is that a gen 702 crown?
