As my study of pre V,
I felt the challenge to make custom dial.

Especially after viewing this 3 images bellow

After many hours of vector drawing, finding source and experiment, here are the detail shot of my hand made dial (5218-201/A as trial):



font detail on pad print, as in the reference picture; the use of sanserif font brand name pad printed preV dial is incorrect :

indicase detail color filling (3D depth) mimicking the Tritium + stated in the 3 images on top that indicase was filled, not left empty...so i fill it after coloring/luming process:

So far that is my accomplishment in the trial process,
feel free to share more insight n opinion regarding gen pre V dial

I think it is avery good job and approach
I have already read this thread in RG
And besides indications from RG's projectologist I would reconsider the lower part of each letter, to avoid many "little tails"
Congrats good job!
