Hi Springer,

Thanks heaps for the great analysis here. Grateful as always

As Orchi only stated the series number (1.6mil to mid 2xmil), I was a little confused as to which came on first, though I did have some knowledge that gilt dials came first before the matte dials.

By the way, when you use the term 'white dials' in this thread, I assume it's the same as 'matte dials' mentioned elsewhere? Honestly, this is the first time I have heard of the use of the description 'white dial'.

Thanks again in advance.
