OK, I'll bite and show that I'm pure newb, what's a "rail" dial?

The space between the words Superlative Chronometer and Officially Certified are in-line as opposed to the space between these words being offset. See below, first picture is rail dial, second is the more common version.

Thanks, although I can't for the life of me figure out where "rail" came from I can see the difference!

Speaking of dials, were there any vintage "no-date" Sea Dwellers?

Was it for a cream dial Exp II? Well, Ubi, if you find one, can you make a whistle for me?

It was in fact a cream dial Rail, but not very well done. Very sloppy actually. I don't think you'd want it (I wish I had taken a picture of it).

Rail dials were produced by Stern, and are easily identified by the alignment of the SCOC text. The text is positioned from center out (i.e. center to left, center to right).
