Removing the flyer I damaged the bezel..
the scotch tape used to fix the instruction flyer damaged the graphics below.
Alberto, my graphic designer, re designed the missing part, then I printed it with different gamma corrections in order to understand which combination of colors to use,
then I printed the mirrored selected part on transparent adesive film.
also in this case the result is not perfect but I prefer to have an original glass with a "patch" instead of a repro...

yes, I have one of those labels. I prefer original where possibile but ptobably I'll use the repro for my space wars...
do you know any coding rules for serial numbers?

flyer...
the instruction flyer was in very bad conditions so I decided to reprint it...

here you can see the final result: flyer and "patch"

camera flash amplify the "defect" of the patch. to say the truth with normal light the patch is not so evident...

not really, but i think since the numbers have a dot in them , that maybe the first 3 is the machine code and the last the serial ?

thinking about that, it does not make sence, because that would mean that there are no more that 999 per model

i dont have a clue though..

i think i've said it before, but it can't hurt to repeat myself: that thing is NASTY and you're doing a great job bringing it back to something "displayable".

btw, congratulations on having your own personal private graphic designer! :D
