Going to make a small run of black mother of pearl dials. Still have to CNC the markers out and add lume. The markers will be simple as I want the Mother of Pearl to be the focus.
Here is a pic of the blanks and the 3D CAD model.

This is going to be EXCELLENT MCWW !..I have never seen the MOP dials in their early form before. What's also nice, is the way you are planning out the dial with those markers. It looks like it's going to be a dive watch theme and THAT sounds pretty cool !

This run will be the dive style, lume will be Noctilumina B8UF, which is off white glows blue. I might do a few with gray tinted lume as well.
If they are popular, more colors will follow as well as more black.
sixtysix, when they are complete next month I'll have them for sale on my website www.motorcitywatchworks.com
