Great work,you almost made the engraving 1:1!
Are you engraving them or pressing them with a stencil type stamp ?

Some of my pre-v's were done with CO2 but most with fiber lasers.

The biggest obstacle to making the engravings exactly 1:1 are the laser operators

I think they were made with a stensil and a Steele press stamp like on coins,
I read that somewhere long time ago in article by Dirk the strap maker.
The one who made the famous Dirk logo buckles when Panerai was sold to Cartier group ,he bought the original steel stamps
from the contractor for Panerai and made several sold at reasonable prices back then.
Then when Richmond took over it was copyright issue so he switched to his logo.

I meant that mine are laser engraved. I have corrected my previous post so that is clear
