  1. Mm.. I'm confused; i've read some of your posts to know you know enough about the specs of the rolli/fgd dials by now to ask such a question.....?
  2. After seeing the rolli/fgd dials in real life I feel it's apples and oranges when you compare a cheap replica dial with a rolli/fgd dial, but of course I'm bias because I've seen the beauty of the dails For those among us that favor the 000 I think this is great news!! keep up the good work Rolli
  3. The glossiness comes from the natural tree resin varnish (uv820) which is highly glossy when newly applied. This is mixed with the lume powder in a special ratio before it is used to fill the indices. Over time the glossy finish dulls out (and discolors)
  4. congratz on two great pieces the 036 dial looks beautifull and the 082 looks amazing as well :)
  5. Thanks S. They sure do :)
  6. and some side-by-side shots of the 201/a and the 202/a
  7. look forward seeing yours ogladio! i couldn't resist making some additional pictures
  8. Hi guys, I think everything has been said about the dial that makes this set *pop* for me it is *perfection* and I'm soo happy with it, I hope you enjoy my pictures W0lf Pre-V caseset with Rolli's custom PVD coating Rolli/FGD Pre-V 202/a dialset Gen swiss movement Dirk Pre-V style strap C3 Crystal David Wong Caseback
  9. I purchased it directly from w0lf when he made them (some years ago)
  10. Hi guys, Yesterday I received Rolli's latest dialset; the one that has probably been anticipated the most; his Pre-V series and in this case the 201/a and it is made with the same remarkable craftmanship as his previous dials! I can't think of any aspect that could have been improved; it's just spectacular! (and it also glows like a torch ) These last parts complete a build made out of the following parts: W0lf Pre-V caseset Rolli/FGD Pre-V 201/a dialset Gen swiss movement Dirk Pre-V style strap C3 Crystal David Wong Caseback most important; let's go to the pictures: thanks to Rolli and FGD and everybody else that has contributed over these past years for their efforts in enabling us to start projects which contains parts with this kind of astounding quality
  11. Tnx for all the kind words guys
  12. Hi guys, Yesterday I received the 055 dialset from Rolli and it is (again) a s-p-e-c-t-a-c-u-l-a-r dial, the color, the shine, the finish; it all just looks wunderfull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The tobacco color goes so well with the titanium and the combination with the butterscotch strap gives it a beautifull vintage feel, while being contemporary This was one of my easiest "builds" because all parts were sort of ready to go these are the parts used: Parts: Trustytime 061 H-Fact PAM Rolli/FGD 055 dial set (temporary) noob saphire gen butterscotch PAM strap Mods: no mods apart from polishing the cannon pinion and mildly cleaning all the case parts (and swapping the dial, hands and saphire) let's go to the pics All the best Cheers!
