I take it you were trying to go for the non-serif feet first version? Can we have better scans than the thumbnail you posted?

[Bomber22]

Sure will post some more when im back from work

Any Comment on some that doesnt look right ??

[Ezio]

Glad you Got it done mate

Now you just need to make The case

Print looks fuzzy and the 12 o'clock triangle looks off-center, but that could be a function of the low quality image.

How in the world did you make this?! Was this machined or did you start with a pre-made dial? Do you have a printing pad?

Couple of comments... Assuming you were trying to make a non-serif:

1) the coronet is a bit skinny at the bottom. It should be marginally more fat.

2) Coronet is a hair too far away from the 12 triangle

3) the "R" in Rolex is too wide

4) the "E" in Rolex is not wide enuff

5) spacing between depth and "submariner" is too close

6) "submariner" font is a fraction too small

But I'm only looking at it via iPhone. And you picture sucks. Need better pics. Up close macros as well.

Minute markers are too fat and too short as well. Top triangle is a fraction too fat. I guess that's why it's a bit far from the coronet.

Upon second look the entire "Rolex" is too stretched. It should be more boxy is you know what I mean. Maybe all the letters need to be taller.

Wow! I have a lot of respect for those with the skill to take a piece of steel and make it into whatever they desire..especially when they can do it at home.
