Opinion.

The dials that are sold by Radio Daze were previously made by Mike Tobin. I haven't bought any recent ones but general consensus at the time was that they were too light. The ones presently being sold by Mark Oppat seem (to me, anyway) to be much more realistic color-wise. They are also truly screen-printed and not a laminated copy.
