wiesn089 Posted August 2, 2015 Report Posted August 2, 2015 Hi, I'm weighing my options for building a MN snowflake. Gen dials are kind of scarce and rather expensive. Are there any top notch aftermarket dial and hand alternatives out there? I've come across MQ's version which looks pretty decent, any experience with his snowflake dial? Also I have absolutely no clue when it comes to hands, is there even any accurate option out there? Here's what I'm aiming for:
mystere Posted August 2, 2015 Report Posted August 2, 2015 Hi, i have used these Snowflake Polished for ETA http://www.motorcitywatchworks.com/handseta.html. they are not bad and reasonable price.

dpap Posted August 6, 2015 Report Posted August 6, 2015 Ditto on a good dial. I have a HR but it is a bit too light blue for my taste
ferristara Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 Ditto on a good dial. I have a HR but it is a bit too light blue for my taste.....that they are a tiny bit lighter in blue color is what I like so much - that´s why I´ve bought one from HR for my built.....!
swift7777 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 Any idea if the tiger concept hands are the correct length, seems like most reps are too long on the minute hand. In terms of a correct dark blue dial for a MN build I would say PVirus has the closest.
dpap Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 Well, if someone has a dial like the OP or know where to source one, I would be all over itSent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Nanuq Posted November 7, 2015 Report Posted November 7, 2015 Here's a set of Tiger hands, the widths, lengths and points where the diamonds intersect the hour markers are spot on.
