My Alps printer can print in dye sub mode but nothing is raised. The only "mode" that uses dye sublimation is photo quality with special ribbons. This is the printer I use to print white on black...

The papers are too thick... A date-wheel overlay is normally only a couple of thousandths thick.

I should get the new batch of decal stock in next week and hopefully the surface is more to my printer's liking. I had used ink jet paper in preliminary tests and the graphics were somewhat "blotchy" under magnification so I ordered some laser decal paper. Hopefully it will be smoother then everything should be razor sharp.

Nice herd!

I may have a decal worked up within a week if this last batch of waterslide decal paper I have ordered works out. This is what they will look like:

I think that might be from Yuki. I remember noticing the return address on stuff from them had a gal's name on it...

Nothing, but it is scarily right around the corner as freddy opined...

Great looking watch, here's it's poor cousin:

Story of my life - a day late and a dollar short...

I think Chiman is likely right the more I look at your pic. Even if NOT broken off the pin wouldn't stick out that far.

Is it an ETA movement? If so just order another 4th wheel... Or maybe, if you had really steady hands, you could JB-Weld the sweep hand to the nub?

Several years ago I thanked my youngest son (now 29) for not giving me as much grief as his older brother did. His reply indicated that the main thing that kept him in line was not wanting a good thrashing! He has turned out very well and is now a software engineer...

The media here has been a bit fuzzy about what the catalyst was. I've read a few stories in the Sun (on-line) and I just don't understand. I think all of this stuff goes back to the lack of "spare the rod, spoil the child" that was used when I grew up. Little creeps nowadays know that about all they will get is a slap on the wrist so there is no fear of punishment to keep them in line. I don't care what libs think, the only thing that keeps some kids in line until they are actually old enough to understand is fear...

Just what the hell is going on over there!!!???

My newly rediscovered first favorite/grail watch...

Yeah, ISO, I'm trying to figure out why ASA popped into my head. Guess I'm still stuck in the 35mm film days...

Or, in my case, cut, measure, file, measure, file....get new stem then cut...

I understand...

Try a slower ASA setting as well. As "film speed" increases so does the noise in the digital world...

I've seen (in pics) dark green, dark blue, black, red, burgundy, silver, panda, you name it. I guess this one would be a replication of a 79280... I also have this one courtesy of Chiman:

You will be assimilated... All we need is a dial and movement!

Hmmm, I do have another case, band, and set of hands...

Lookin' good!

Damn, too late...

R, we gotta figure out how to come up with some 500 mph bezels... Yours turned out quite scrumptious!
