lawman Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Hi Guys, Been reading threads for many moons now but still not 100% on where exactly to get the best dial for a 111. The old davidsen was good however you can't get them anymore. I'm building a homage 111h (Jimmy fu casing, Palp crown etc etc) so needing some advice on where to purcahse the dial. Guys?

chad Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Dsn and "best dial" should never be in the same sentence. :-) He does many things well but dials are not one of them. The standard rep dial with some work from vac/flav etc would be best. Be careful with the filled indice dials the luminor and marina are a very different font on the dial used to make that than the real g series.

lawman Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Oh ok, so just a standard dial from Josh would be an alright starting point? Obviously I'll send it off to get lumed but standard is basically as good as anything else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It solved many of the obvious tells.....ie the spacing under the #6 and the incorrect font used for the "A" Yes, to a rep nerd like some of us on here, we could tell the difference, but for the most part, I would take an old DSN over a standard dial in a heart beat. With a lume job, you would really have something to be desired. The standard dial still have the most obvious tells from arms length. Again, this is one mans opinion.
