Here are a few more (of the hundreds I took of the) dial shots.
I think these highlight the texture of the dial, which is not matte, or flat. The method used to create this texture is called “grenage”. (Everyone reading this probably knows this already.) Makes for a very different and attractive surface. And we don’t have to worry about whether or not the dial is stamped.
TheMadDruid is singlehandedly responsible for me realizing how much I like PF. Specifically this model and the grey celadon dial toric have me excited.
