You are correct regarding the engraved rehaut and the Flat "S" dial being of different time date eras. As for being a "major tell"...perhaps, but most likely only to those you hand your watch over to for close inspection: and then only to those that know enough of Rolex history to know what dial, what year, when engraved rehaut was introduced, etc.( which is probably like 1 in 50,000 people, believe it or not.) Many of us tend to fret over details that can only be seen or realized under VERY close inspection and/or under the loupe.

Easy sollution...while having the dial/hands SL'd, have the rehaut engraving removed. I wouldn't do that myself because the BK/TW is among a rare few that the engraving is actually "perfectly" aligned". That in itself is very cool...to me. And so is the "Zubmariner" dial.

Thanks for the info CT - been away a while.

I'm with you in as much as I'm looking for a nice watch and any small detail is not that important. I'm just keen to get a BK TWB sub - I know what you guys mean about waiting! Hopefully the wait will be worthwhile.

Cheers

No just use the spring bars that come with the noob. I will post pics when I am home right now my watch is being modded by the one and only bklm. Getting a taller gasket to have better rise on the xstal and stronger date mag cause from factory date mag on TWs are weak IMHO
