question concerning a 1680 dial


pfff

Recommended Posts

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL

The L is not the only problem!!

Look at the depth rating!! It's 1000ft = 300m!!

At a 1680?? :D :D

You need a 660 ft = 200m dial!!

Forget the one above for a 1680!

I did not pick him up on the 1680 reference, assumed he'd just left a 0 off by mistake - clearly he's asking about the QUALITY of the dial.

As a transitional 16800 redial though it's not a bad example - but not worth 400usd nowhere near, a third of that at best.

I did not think that you don't know it's for a 16800!! ;)

But it was only funny to read his question about the L on a 1680 dial with 1000ft!!

Referring to you I think you are totally right! The dial is not bad, but I think it would be

possible to do some betters!

Why aren't those who make these dials not able to look at a genuine one and make a good

replica of those? It couldn't be so difficult, isn't it?

It's not the L thats off, its the O...I used to be part of TRF and they are crazy about making this distinction...That dial has what is known as a "lazy O" - Apparently they are more rare than the normal dials
