Yeah. Try p.com to source out some pics.
000 DLC is great and highly recommended. A couple months ago I saw someone baked dial in the oven. Lume came out nicely (vintage). Somewhat it looks like 360.
I will post pics later.

Please post your pics, if you decide to do it.

Good luck.

Guys - those pics make the zero look FANTASTIC! I'm now SERIOUSLY considering doing same. If anyone has info to share on which company is the "best" for doing PVD/DLC coating - please share.

I have found this guy on ebay, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2708391250...#ht_500wt_1413 I have emailed him and a few people he has done work for. From what I have seen the service is next to non and all comments say he is a perfectionist!! Just need to find another 000 to have the process done on.

Looking at how the roasted dial 000 looks I am tempted to have the 390 DLC'd when it arrives.

EDIT - nevermind. I followed the link and learned that the owner modded the dial and hands.
