PILOT TYPE 20 BLUEPRINT
I just noticed this new release. As much as I like the Type 20, I am not sure about this one. Nice blue but too busy. Your thoughts? www.zenith-watches.com Photo: Zenith Photo: Fratello Watches ...
It's the blueprint for the dial of the watch, exact measurements for the placement of the numbers and text. [nt]
A sapphire glass is placed over the blueprint. On the glass are the numbers and text. So the dial has two parts, the blueprint and the sapphire glass. A standard sapphire crystal is then used over both.
It's attractive enough, like Nico says the drawing is great on paper but on a dial? [nt]

for the Pilot Extra Special model. The sapphire has the numerals and text on it, not stated though how it has been applied. The needless text sensitive crowd should look elsewhere

They are now milking the cow over and over again just like the Richemont group. History is repeating itself here. The blue color looks nice but the dial execution is terrible with all these writings. I can’t see myself wearing this for more than 2min. A v...
