alinghi74 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Hi, which the best DIal closest to the original for the 1665 DRSD? NDTading or YUKIWATCH? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Spend some time over at doubleredseadweller.com and VRF (Vintage Rolex Forum) dial archive. Study the photos side by side. Their products vary over time. Also, what they picture may not be what they ship. If you settle on one, make sure you confirm the photo is WYSIWIG.

flex Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 My two cents: I spent a fair bit of time looking for an accurate rep DRSD dial. The conclusion is that there is none available. Each maker product has some flaws. Note that the current one avialable on the market is a replica of Mark 4 dial. The charactersitcs are "skiinny Coronet" and closed 6 (610 m). Let's start with Ebay seller: New model of NDTrading (the older ones are better) Older NDTrading (A geninue collector even said "he paid his lession to be able to tell the difference". Lastly, I found that MQ offers the best dial on the market. I think if you can widen the indices on 6 & 9 o' clock in The Zigmeister's tritum lume (like what Freddy did on his dial). That will make a rather perfect one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiman12 Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Flex...I believe the InGod dial is based off the Mark III, not the Mark IV...but I'm not the resident Rolex expert... In any case...as flex mentioned...it is hard to find a very accurate dial...there are always some flaw, big or small... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flex Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Mark 4 has closed 6 depth rating.. Mark i - III has opened 6 Mark IV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
