mr-z 0 Posted October 5, 2012 Looks like the dial is taking longer the expected .. so I thought id mod the tachy ring to the correct bronze colour instead of the incorrect gold which is on the standard rep!! As you can see now .. it should be bronze tone not gold without the crystal with the crystal installed .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr-z 0 Posted November 5, 2012 I know its been a long time since any updates regarding the sub dial ... i can say its been a up hill battle and it's still not showing any light at the end of the tunnel ... but thankfully moved a few steps in the right direction ... here is final art with a few colour option ... please feel free to leave any comments regards the colour ... as they still can be re-adjusted ,, also this is just the jpeg file not the prof which is in HD and work has been extended .. so the cutter guide have been removed in this file !!the matter of the red waffle part of the dial i will be tackling that my self ... as the company that was going to do it is taking for ever !!! also please not the colour are off in jpeg file here as they have been generated in pantone colours !!

mr-z 0 Posted November 17, 2012 (edited) Another Quick update ... been trying out .. some custom colours on the dial ... its my best effort after being in the custom paint shop for over 2 hours .. and this is the closest i could get it... just from the pics ... but but will opt for another technical process to archive the correct finish on the lower red part of the dial ... but in the mean while here are some pics of what the state of play is so far .. feel free to leave and feed back !! sub dial should be ready next week !!

mr-z 0 Posted November 19, 2012 Right finally ... managed to get the correct finish in the lower red part of the dial (with the native print effect ) just the sub dial's left to finish this .. labour of life piece off .... the ap writing is just for the mock up final will be crisp and clear .... and in correct fount !! as always please feel free to leave any feed back .... finally light and the end of the tunnel shines !!!!

mr-z 0 Posted November 20, 2012 gen for colour compare !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vonGluberschmidt 0 Posted November 20, 2012 perhaps it's a lighting issue, but the subdial at 6 doesn't appear to be the same colour as the photo it's photographed upon, nor as the gen. the one you have is dark grey, and the gen is almost white (very light grey) am I mistaken?? I applaud your effort on this piece it's fantastic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr-z 0 Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) yes you are correct ... but the sub dail will be finished later on this week .. i was referring only to the red lower part of the dial in this update ... will have the subs done to the correct light grey colour by the end of the week fingers crossed !!

mr-z 0 Posted December 10, 2012 also my dial update has moved forward ... but not totally finished here is where i am now ..... as you can see sub's @6/9 are ready just a small adjustment in the centrer part i.e the lighter patch on sub @ 12 and its finished .... @ gio thank you for the kind words my friend as i said before its only happened because your real carbon case .. so kudos to you Sir !!

mr-z 0 Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) Thanks .. guys for the great feed back , at the moment only modding the whole GP !! yet again been testing out new colours on the dial ... i think this will be my final colour , as its as close as i can get .. without having the gen .. and the light plays a major factor when you see photos on the net .. !! here where i am at the moment , as for the sub dials @12 will be printed again so the light spot in the middle will blend in and @ 9 will adjust the yellow colour , so its a brighter yellow ... and then that's final .. . and the tachy colour will be re done as well !!
