White dial clock

Does anyone know where I could get a white dial speedo clock from? I ordered the one on ebay but its transparent on a white paper background.

Sometimes struggle to see the black face speedo, especially at a quick glance. My clocks are KMH with an over lay MPH black dial on currently.

Re: what push bike did you have as a kid?

I had a Raleigh Striker which weighed a ton - then when I was a bit taller my mum bought me a Raleigh burner BMX in black with red graphics (same as my storm, come to think of it) as a surpise Christmas present - it was the best Christmas ever!!!
