This is also from the 2nd-try at Wal-Mart Dial Printing, and Thank you!

to Bro. bjohnson for providing above-and-beyond tech (and moral) support! Thumbs up!

Sure, I used his Doxa-esque OpenOffice dial template..

..and combined it with a full SS case, 40.5mm X 46.5mm X 12.5mm thick to the top of the gently-domed crystal.

This case was designed for a quartz, so the 1.00mm dial-stem offset was close enough to make the PC21 nest properly.

I got to say I'm leaning towards Bro. honeycutt's opinion, below. I reckon this one has the Keeper position nailed down. Laughing

For the time being.. Rolling on the floor laughing my a.. off

I'm fixin' to do a blue-dial

-Look "More Watch For The Money", so that might well change. Crazy! Loco!

But I gotta admit, it wears grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr8! WIS Honeymoon

Well then, take a gander at these...	Ricky Lee	118	June 19, 2010 08:51PM
Using an Iframe. If you see this, get Firefox. Really. Quote bjohnson I'll be around tonight (about 10:00pm EST) if people want some hands on howto for the dial creation software in the chat room. Great Idea! I don't really do chat and, anyway, I think I've got it down now. Still, it'd be nice if more folks were using this tool. Hint to the Forum At Large - If you're prepared to send me the requisite ODG files, I'll soon start doing custom dials to order, so it might be worth your while. Quote bjohnson They should download the files from your server and have openoffice.org installed. FYI I did replace dial_custom_creation.odg on my server with the updated example you sent me a couple of days back. -Ricky
