Either can incorporate the longitudinal correction for the planned site of the dial plus an inscription related to the dial/owner/location. For a plate that size figures for five days in each month would fit and the rest can be interpolated by the reader. The snags. I can't offer a 'by return service'. The transatlantic cost may deter. If you you have no better offeres I'll cost some examples. Best Tony Moss.
