The 1016: The Under Appreciated Thread

[Parto]

It is a vietnam dial but not sure who from but guess they are from a single source as your ruby looks like the below mq dial (looking at the lower part of the 3)

The printing looks like mine which is also a Vietnam dial.

Beautiful pieces.

I really need to get a dial and finish my build. Thinking of getting yuki’s 5500 underline chocolate dial. It’s not even close to gen but I love the color.

QQ. Which plexi is the one that is flat top? I know the t19 fits but I don’t really want a domed plexi.

Here's my beat up old relic with Whoopy dial. As you can see I'm pretty hard on them and I've since changed bracelet to a folded Oyster.

ebzen002 Parto It looks like they used the same pad printer for all our dials
Judging by the print, cornet and specifically the way the lume is applied. same maker ... vastly different prices if you buy from ruby or mq

This is another build I did using a Raffles dial that I had aged with some air brush paints..and the matt clear coat to seal it in. Not bad for a first attempt on a budget dial.

before:

after:


This one is going to another member for his build. I received the case set from jmb earlier this week just waiting on movements as the one I had set aside for him appears to be faulty

​​​​​​​Now its a waiting game as it is CNY

ruby has some nice gilt ones for 5500 atm

Yes, I still have about 10 case sets on hand and I'm torn as to whether to make any more after this batch runs out.
