justlounging Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 Hi Rolex experts, I would like to ask if the below dial is a gen 16750 dial...or is it refurnished? Lume is missing on 11 and 12 o'clock markers..back plate has an engraving of '375'... Appreciate if you could provide your feedback/advice. Thanks!
Mapman57 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) Tricky one Not seen one with no inscription at the bottom on the dial - but maybe others have? Print looks odd as well? The gen Beyeler dial from this period would have the B logo and 375 inscription on the back - do you see the B - looks a little like a Breitling logo? Here is my transitional 16750 from mid 1980's (with date on dial).......you can see the B clearly Edited May 4, 2012 by Mapman57
justlounging Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Posted May 4, 2012 hmm fair enough assessment..that's right..i didnt notice that the 't swiss made t' or 'swiss-t<25' wasnt there.. odd thing is it is being sold by a shop that sells all gen watches and have the feedback to back on it..unless the owner knows something i dont?
Ronin Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 The 375 on the back gives the 'blank' a hint of credibility, but honestly, it looks like a very bad re-dial. I would pass.
lionsandtigers Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 and the placement of the dial feet are also a giveaway. eta written all ova
Valty Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 100% fake / very bad redial. Just look at the positioning of the dots. All is wrong, not aligned, ... Printings are awful... I'm pretty sure my grand-ma can do better with some tip-ex... You should prefer a "true" aftermarket dial...
