WUSSE Design - PROTEUS FINAL STAGE - We are almost there

[markrlondon]

If you take the picture of the dial in WUSSE Design - PROTEUS FINAL STAGE - We are almost there and brighten it then you can see the minute markings.

I've taken the above picture, cropped it, and brightened it. It's now possible to see that it does, in fact, have minute markings.



I am hoping that they will be more easily visible on the real watch.

Thanx Mark, I gues the protoype will answer a lot of our questions.

OK, then it is a misunderstanding. What you see on the picture is a chapter ring. That of course will be there. I thought you are aking for some additional minute markers.

As far as I can see, the chapter ring has the minute markers cut into it.

What I hope is that these are reasonably visible on the actual watch.

No one else dislikes the protruding bezel retainer bolts?

I can understand why you don't like them but they do not, in fact, bother me.

Well, I actually like them, they look so industrial and toolish...

Yes yes... they are cut into chapter ring, but I thought you were asking for some extra minute markings printed on the dial.
Actualy I hope the minute markers cut into chapter ring stay in the background. They will be visible, but they should not interfere with the clean look of the dial.
I actualy dont understand why would you need minute markings anyway... I dont see them on Panerai and no one is missing them.

Well, that's exactly what I voted for in the 'Dial overall look' vote but I was out-voted.

To tell the time accurately. This is a basic requirement of a tool watch in my opinion.
