Dear Sir, Our Sales Dept., have found that the larger diameter dials on the Bentley instruments are proving awkward for some angles of steering and they are very anxious to have for inspection a sample dial 4" in diameter in order that they can compare the appearance of the 4" diameter dial with the present existing 5". Will you kindly prepare for us as soon as possible an experimental Bentley rev clock dial 4" in diameter. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
