One of the latest
Hodinkee shop offerings breathlessly mentions "hand-painted Roman numerals" in the description. Really?
I have always assumed dials were produced using a printing plate or pad printing process. A quick search of the interwebs reveals little about dial printing methods, so perhaps the process was so mundane as to be not worthy of much discussion.
So: anyone know how were watch dials printed? Is the description just hyperbole? Or is there some truth to it?
