dbane883 Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 Is that MQ's 16800 dial? http://vintagewatchesmq.com/minhquy/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=678&category_id=87&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1 I've never seen that dial in a sub anywhere. But doesn't mean it wasn't made for specific event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezio Posted July 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 Looks like The same pic only thing i have is The cropped Down version above fun to see The whole dial wonder how it Would fit in a superfranken 16800 if it had a a true place in The history somewhere could be Fun to have a alternative to The comex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanuq Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 He offered me to take it out and it was everything I had in me to say "no thank you". I couldn't risk bashing that thing on the screwy drive-on-the-wrong-side roads! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sogeha Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 It said on my driving licence application form "tear along dotted line" and that's what I do unless I'm not in a hurry, then I drive on the shady side of the road. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 A Roman walks into a bar and orders a "martinus". The bartender says "don't you mean martini?" And the Roman replies... "my good sir, if I wanted two, I would have ordered them." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolojack Posted July 6, 2016 Report Share Posted July 6, 2016 There were so many custom dials made... There isn't necessary a history. Only a client who ordered 10 of those to offer its team after the race. I have a 1665 with a ENCO logo (former name of ESSO in the USA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
