David, Indeed this would turn out to be a very expensive dial. So, I took the easy way out, I found another Groom on eBay which looks to have been badly bodged but the dial looks in good shape. The price is a rip-off but all things are relative so for 100 Euros or so I'll have a nice dial (if they pack it properly!)

I'm always reluctant to buy a set just for spares - I want to get them all restored and I hate breaking a set up. Anyway in this case someone got started already so I'll save the dial and the rest will go in the attic.
Cheers, John
I'll keep tinkering around with decal/transfer process as I'm sure I'll need it again in the future......
