cls Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Have a white dial vintage rolex chronograph and wanted to make the dial more "vintage" So, for all who are wondering, the cigar smoke in the box trick doesn't work. Anybody have other tips on making a white dial look old? The cigar was good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
