I know its been a long time since any updates regarding the sub dial ... i can say its been a up hill battle and it's still not showing any light at the end of the tunnel ... but thankfully moved a few steps in the right direction ... here is final art with a few colour option ... please feel free to leave any comments regards the colour ... as they still can be re-adjusted ,,

also this is just the jpeg file not the prof which is in HD and work has been extended .. so the cutter guide have been removed in this file !!the matter of the red waffle part of the dial i will be tackling that my self ... as the company that was going to do it is taking for ever !!! also please not the colour are off in jpeg file here as they have been generated in pantone colours !!

Another Quick update ... been trying out .. some custom colours the dial ... its not a best effort after being in the custom paint shop for over 2 hours .. and this is the closest i could get it just from the pics ... but but will opt for another technical process to archive the correct finish on the lower red part of the dial ... but in the mean while here are some pics of what the state of play is so far ..

feel free to leave and feed back !!

Mr Z,

hey mate, just want to check if the subdial grey at 9 and 6 o'clock positions, are they a tad lighter in the gen?

It could of course be just the variations in lighting. Stunning either way. :thumbs:

yes you are correct ... but the sub dail will be finished later on this week .. i was referring only to the red lower part of the dial in this update ... will have the subs done to the correct light grey colour by the end of the week fingers crossed !!

also  my dial update has moved forward ... but not totally finished here is where i am now ..... as you can see sub's @6/9 are ready just a small adjustment in the centrer part  i.e the lighter patch on sub @ 12 and its finished ....
 
@ gio thank you for the kind words my friend as i said before its only happened because your real carbon case .. so kudos to you Sir !!

Thanks .. guys for the great feed back , at the moment only modding the whole GP !!      yet again been testing out new colours on the dial ... i think this will be my final colour , as its as close as i can get .. without having the gen .. and the light plays a major factor when you see photos on the net .. !!  here where i am at the moment ,  as for the sub dials @12 will be printed again so the light spot in the middle will blend in and @ 9 will adjust the yellow colour , so its a brighter yellow ... and then that's final .. . and the tachy colour will be re done as well !!
