1016 Explorer Dial interest - final printing

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

So as not to leave you hanging, below I've attached pictures of the first printing. I think I forwarded one of these to a member who preordered already, but wanted to share with everyone as promised. The first printing did not pass my QC because of a couple of issues, the largest being the "E" in 'Superlative' (or rather the 'upside down F'). Not sure how this happened, as the source file I supplied them did not have this defect. With that said, pad printing is always the fun part  :bangin:

 

Will be updating you guys once the batch is reprinted!

Hey all,

 
Ever since the original run sold, I’ve received a bunch of inquires on whether a second batch of 1016 explorer dials would be created. While I didn’t plan on making any more dials, I will be making one last batch of 1016 explorer dials exclusively (sorry, no other models will be made) if the demand is high enough. I would be making 30 total dials, but would need 20 dials accounted for to start printing.
 
The original design has been tweaked so the text/details will be thinner than the original run (which was a bit too thick). The 1016 design that will be printed was hand traced from a genuine dial, and then further edited and refined in a vector program to get optimal printing results once the cliche is made. As before, dials will come unlumed, so you can apply glowing or non-glowing lume.
 
If anyone is interested in a 1016 dial, kindly start a list below and add your username. Once the list/orders are filled, I estimate that the dials will be finished/in transit in 60-90 days. Dials will each be $179. First 5 members to sign up will receive a $10 discount.
 
Previous dial version can be seen below. As mentioned earlier, it will be the same 1016 variant, but with thinner printing :)
 
 
 
To clarify, this is not a sales post, just want to gauge interest! 
 
Special thanks to bangalter for getting this rolling
 
Update: And the most prestigious gold star for tomhorn ;)

Hey M,

Just saw your comment on the comp (was on tapatalk earlier). Noticed some missing print I must've overlooked when packing these up. Shoot me a pm if you want to exchange for another mate ;)
