I agree entirely with this appraisal. That is also one of the reasons I come here.
I have learned so much from reading posts here (reading, reading, reading).
That being the case, I visit almost daily, enjoy what I see, but only post when I have something (hopefully) interesting to say.
Might be why I have been here over 4 years but am only at 800 posts.
Doesn't make this place any less of a success IMO.
If the kids are up to it go on a guided walking tour of central London.
There are loads to choose from, and they will show you the real, hidden London.
The guides are usually 'resting' actors, who also know their subject really well.
A very entertaining 2 hours or so, for not much dosh.
Have a look at the London Walks website
As for watch heaven, as many others have said before, you cannot beat the watch room at Harrods.
(BTW avoid Oxford Street like the plague)
I am thinking that is the way to go with this dial, as the red background for the SUBMARINER 'clear' text in the transfer would have to be so close to the SUPERLATIVE (etc. etc.) text that it would be a bugger to align.
Problem is, I don't have (or have access to) a colour laser printer with a minimum 1200dpi resolution.
Right, here we are again, with what I think is the amalgamation of everone's comments so far...
I have also used a pic of a gen dial from an ebay sale, from which I have remodelled the ROLEX font.
I think it has all come together quite well.
Any further comments, or do I have a thumbs up?
Hi Cats
Not touched this project for a while, too many work comitments taking my time.
But, will have another tinker with it this weekend and re-post when done.
Need to find someone who can print these out somehow. My HP deskjet is mono only. We need colour capability.
Anyone???
Beat me to it!
So how long did it take?
BTW what a great write up! You have some serious talent there.
About half way through, I thought it was turning into an Oysterquartz.
