CR-2040 dial question

I have a 2040 but someone while cleaning it burnt some holes in the dial itself.. or rubbed them in with years of cleaning whatever the cause, I am wondering if any of the CR-x40 series share the dial or if the 2040 is just longer than the rest?

it's unique. I have a 1040 that I could compare to my 2040, but pretty certain the 2040 is longer.

CR2040 dial question

Hello !


I am sure and CR2040 is longer , yes !

bummer for me .. the face of this thing is flawless other than those couple rub marks right on the dial .. maybe if i am careful i can match some model paint to hide it a bit

I cant imagine that I will see these dials pop up very often

that is nice and close. I'm in Port Huron on a semi-regular basis.

2040 is very long

Might try a sharpie marker with same color.

slow jazz that may be a good idea .. i have seen some grey glitter pens that may just be the thing

But NO ONE tell ANYONE that i am buying glitter pens

Hey lookie there another guy from within 50 miles of the city ;-)

I need a tuner scale as well, and yes unfortunately they are unique.

I hope to stop by the hobby store on the way home and maybe pick up a grey glitter pen and see how close a match it is, as long as its fresh i should be able to get it off should it be highly undesirable.

I will try something like a Gelly Roll® Metallic™
or
Pentel® Sunburst™ Metallic Gel-Ink Pens, Medium Point, Silver
or
Sharpie Paint Marker Pens Water Based Ex Fine Point 6 Metallic Colors Kit


My thought is i may have to get a sample match it up visually then once i decide on the closest match, bust the pen open and paint it in place as i dont think the pen will "roll" out the ink like on paper
