At Christmas I received a stocking stuffer of a small mass produced brass dial on a marble base. I had to unscrew the gnomon to safely pack it in my suitcase, and saw underneath the gnomon in almost microscopic letters "F J de Vries 1982". The dial seemed to be a reproduction of an old high latitude (>50 degrees) dial. Several stickers on the dials' underside had fallen of, but a remaining sticker said "Made in Taiwan for Authentic Models"
So, is there a story behind this, Fer? Bill G. -
