Closed Back DSN Movements

[absinth]

Hi,

Do the closed back movements DSN puts in his watches with the "PANERAI PANERAI PANERAI" repeating text have glued on bridge plate overalys or are the plates themselves actually engraved?

An example of a DSN closed back movement would be the 010D

oh mate, I WISH they were engraved, but alas, they are just pieces of thin metal, thick foil really that are glued on.
