Chilenito Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 Having just received my all black portu from Andrew, I compared it with other reps and sumbled upon this one: (sorry ingenieur for borrowing your photos) See the smoothly recessed subdials? ... comparing it to my gen 3714 that comes much closer to the gen. My rep now however appears to have a dial similar to this (imagine it in black) what's the deal here, what's everyones oppinions on the two different dials? Anyone know where to get that "more genuine looking" dial from? Thanks
Chilenito Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Posted March 7, 2011 how noticeable is it though? quite ... the smooth recessed one (like the black above) is nearer to the old gen portus...t he difference wasn't noticeable on Andrews QC pics though ...
Lobster Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 oh boy, may concepta has some spare old rep dials like the one you want?
Chilenito Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Posted March 7, 2011 oh boy, may concepta has some spare old rep dials like the one you want? concepta told me he currently is low on gen dials ... just wondering if anyone knows where to get the smooth recess rep dial?
chad Posted March 7, 2011 Report Posted March 7, 2011 The black is always like this. I have never seen a black that is not like that. I think overall the finish of the black dial is nice though with double ar. Chad

Chilenito Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Posted March 7, 2011 As I wrote in my original topic: "(sorry ingenieur for borrowing your photos)" Should read thanks as well ....
Adz Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 Yeah the more common dials, that I've seen anyway, all seem to be the non-smooth recessed dials. In saying that, it MAY be older models. I reckon a replacement dial is the only way to go personally. I know that Hacra (Hugo) @ Repgeek has/had a black and white panda dial and hands in stock.
