There are many things that catch the eye.

So much good stuff on this site.
Can someone make this dial ? With laser cut or enamel in the future?
Some dial

A short answer to that is that with the right photographic set up and some skill or persistence, any fancy dial might look that good. That's a nice fancy dial, but brother a lot of beautiful fancy dials have survived down the years. Now, it is true that not many are hairline free because the material is fragile.

Thanks for the replies.
Ken, we concur. Now, my thinking changed, the fancy dials are best left to historical examples.
Eventually or currently, Peter and others will have the capability to create any design. Maybe newly manufactured dials are best left to new design ideas.
But of course, the market will decide this.
