Looks great- what are case dimensions?

Very wearable!

Hi @EP.-
Thank you so much for sharing!
You made me go for one of those cases; so excited in antecipation I already did my dial!
Two questions if I may:
- I have an old ranger-tennere vulcanized rubber band like originally employed but these are 16mm - the lug width on these cases is 16 or 18mm?
- Dial diameter is 28.5mm; does it sit under the rehaut or inside it?

Thanks and happy 2023!

What a beautiful dial. Congratulations!
How did you printed it?

The space between lugs is 16.
I think that the 28.5 mm dial sit under the rehaut, but I am not sure of understanding well your question.
The dial fit the movement, and both fit perfectly inside the case as a block.

If lug space is 16 I will be very happy! Thanks for confirming.
Dial is 28.5mm, my question is; is the rehaut opening 28.5mm or slight less meaning it will sit over the dial?

I did the dial with toner transfer over a white blank, laquer, sanding and mirror polishing.
Then burnt “radium” lume mix with uv resin applied in yhe dots and finally the litmus dot punched and applied.
Basically the same technique used for the vintage making, except the radium
Thank you!

Thank you for your answer about the dial.

The opening is 27.5

Thank you so much for the info!
And a double thank you for opening up for measuring.
Sorry for the trouble.
I ran out of baseplates but once I get more I will do you a dial if you like it.
Happy 2023

Thank you very much for the offering of the dial. If you send to me the design file, I will try to do myself to learn the technike.
