lello Posted December 2, 2006 Report Posted December 2, 2006 Thank you guys. These pics will be very useful. I only have some doubts about the #7, all the others I think I'm able to redisign them. I'm quite busy with my regular job right now, but I will let you see the drawings asap.
HauteHippie Posted December 2, 2006 Report Posted December 2, 2006 Hi, I'm planning to produce a datewheel for this IWC with correct font. If anyone could supply to me some good pics of the real one, I would appreciate it. I have a couple of pics, but I can only see 1-2-6 numbers. I made a research, but I didn't find this font anywhere and so, I'm designing it by myself. To nake it accurate I need some more references. Can anyone help? Thank you, -- Lello. WOW!!! Great news!!! If I see a numeral that isn't 1 2 or 6 I'll be sure to send it!!
Hugo1 Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 Cool! We guys should send this pixs to dealers so they can fabricate them.
HauteHippie Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 Hope it helps: LOL ! ! ! Is that for sale?
ryaku Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 No it isn't. It's just a picture from the Iwc catalogue.
lello Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 Thank you guys, now I can work on it. I will be making a post to check how many people could be interested in this.
HauteHippie Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 Thank you guys, now I can work on it. I will be making a post to check how many people could be interested in this. I'm in for 2. Because I know they'll bring out a good version of the AMG Ingy too! No it isn't. It's just a picture from the Iwc catalogue. Well done in tracking that down!
Seadweller4000 Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 I'd be in for a datewheel, too. In fact my Inge is still on it's way from Silix... Can't wait to get it! By the way, that kevlar-strap looks just fabulous!
M5kirk Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 I'd take at least 1 and 2 if they come out with a titanium version of the AMG. Cheers! Kirk
Hugo1 Posted December 6, 2006 Report Posted December 6, 2006 (edited) Me too. The kevlar strap is cool. Coz the clasp on the bracelet of the rep is a big giveaway with the perlage. Heres a pix of the gen. Edited December 6, 2006 by Hugo1
andreas Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 What about this font? http://fontso.com/font-preview?f=85260 Test drive "Mishmash" numbers. May it helps?
fitmic Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 What about this font? http://fontso.com/font-preview?f=85260 Test drive "Mishmash" numbers. May it helps? Link doesn't work for me...
ryaku Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 Firefox has problem for me either. Try explorer.
lello Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 (edited) I downloaded the font, but it's only slightly similar, so no helpful. Thanks anyway. The DW scan it was attached here in this post, it is actually very distorted and so it's only good as a sample. Experience tells me that to make these DW, there are not shortcuts, but you have to make perfect graphics. It's hard to get a final print even with perfect files, can you imagine if we start with something not perfect? However, I'm making it with good results, here is a portion.

andreas Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 Great! Have you made all numbers? How will you "paint" it on the wheel?
