This board is loaded with PAM experts, so I figured I'd get some god input on this question:
I am looking forward to completing an 001, using some nice parts that have been sitting in my box for a long time (including a Jimmie case and crown guard). But I've been waiting for the right dial.
About a year ago, I picked up the following dial from River. (This was back when all of the sausage dials had "L Swiss L" printed too close to the "6"):
I was never quite satisfied with this one, so I never sent it out to be lumed.
Then, recently, I read very good things about Angus' new 111e dial...So I bought one of those:
This dial is very sharp, but I'm struck by how thin the font is...Particularly the "1" in "12".
So, what's the verdict? Should I go with either of these, or just keep holding out for a better option? (Whichever one I pick will be lumed, so color is not an issue). Thanks for you input.
