marinamm20 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 could be a gen dial with new lettering ? Eurotimez.com also sells singer dials - but to a much lower price Eurotimez dials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 All look a bit to clean and good for me, some pretty sought after kit there with low starting prices, i would be happy even if i knew it was a reprint if the price is decent, i am no expert but the printing does look good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Singer blanks can be procurred; I'd be more inclined to say that this is fresh 'replica' dial printed on such a blank and not so much a refinished dial as stated on the listing. The printing is consistent with some others that I have seen. Regardless, the dial is very nice for a refinish; especially when compared to some of the others out there. The immediate tell that this isn't an authentic dial is at 6:00; from there, the detail characteristics that define the dial as non-genuine all fall into place... -SWISS T<25 -Open 6 @ depth rating (not incorrect, but the following details don't correlate to a dial of this type e.g. Types 1, 2, 3) -Font types (color, shape, etc. are not consistent to each respective dial type) -Coronet shapes -12:00 marker size/shape But if this is being sold as a redial, the listing is at least honest Whether you trust a seller with 0 feedbacks is up to the prospective buyer...

freddy333 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 The double red is not bad (I have seen better), but his Daytona & Bond Sub dials are just plain nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
