PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a meter face which is a resin product, looks as if manufactured by cutting real metal, and can be mass produced more inexpensively and easily than a metal-cut product, and to provide a vehicle meter including the meter face.SOLUTION: A meter face includes: a meter face substrate 39 which is formed into a circular shape by resin molding, and includes a spin scale 51 formed around a circular center on an outer peripheral inclined surface 49 which is formed in an outer periphery externally downward; a metal thin film 90 which is formed on a surface of the meter face substrate 39; a plurality of steps 57 formed of horizontal planes 59 and vertical planes 61 in order to constitute the spin scale 51, and continuing like steps along the outer peripheral inclined surface 49; an outer periphery chamfered surface 63 formed continuously radially outside the outer peripheral inclined surface 49, and connected to the horizontal plane 59; and an inner periphery chamfered surface 65 formed continuously radially inside the outer peripheral inclined surface 49, and connected to the vertical plane 61.
【課題】樹脂製品でありながら、本物の金属を切削して製造されたような見栄えを有し、金属切削品に比べ、安価で、且つ容易に量産できる文字板及び当該文字板を供えた自動車用メータを提供する。【解決手段】文字板は、樹脂成形によって円形状に形成され、外周縁に形成される外側に下る外周傾斜面49に円形中心を中心としたスピン目付51が形成される文字板基板39と、文字板基板39の表面に成膜される金属薄膜90と、スピン目付51を構成するために水平面59と垂直面61からなり外周傾斜面49に沿って階段状に連なる複数の段部57と、外周傾斜面49の半径方向外側に連続して形成され水平面59に接続される外周側面取り面63と、外周傾斜面49の半径方向内側に連続して形成されて垂直面61に接続される内周側面取り面65を備える。【選択図】図1
