irolexu Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 I am just curious if anyone can tell me which model sub this dial came off of? I bought it on ebay some time ago but come to think of it I do not know if this dial is technically correct for my build? Just thought I'd let the experts chime in.
w.genzo Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 P,K,Y,F series 2001-2005 so it's technically correct for a late 2004/2005 sub with pointed 4, just check the clasp code that should be AD, CL or MA
dan_189 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 There was a discussion around this not long ago. The difference is in the spacing of "OYSTER PERTETUAL DATE" on the "MK2" the spacing is closer together on the "MK3" the spacing is further apart Hope this helps, awesome dial
dan_189 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 http://www.rwg.cc/to...ubmariner-dial/ Mark II lumi dial with rehaut RRRR is first Mark III lumi dial with rehaut RRRR is second There are also 2 Mark II dials, but lets not go there Does that help?
irolexu Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Posted October 1, 2012 I realized last night this dial is an earlier dial when they started popping up on F series No idea but thats awesome lume Thanks! You just can't beat the quality of gen
panerai153 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 A little off subject, but is that a tritium pearl in your insert? I would expect a lumi pearl to glow like the dial and hands. That dial looks exactly like the dial in my genuine "P" series 16610 from 2000.
danza1812 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Mines a gen dial too not sure of the year, but I notice it has a slight gap in between sub and mariner. Think it fits with my overall build which is based on a late y series without lug holes.
fidhle007 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 iRolexU, what does the rest of your build consist of? Your bezel looks ok for the era...
irolexu Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Posted October 1, 2012 iRolexU, what does the rest of your build consist of? Your bezel looks ok for the era... Hi, everything is factory Rolex except the Sean case and v3 tc 93250, and to answer the the question above regarding the insert this has a brand new correct pointed 4 SL insert
fidhle007 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Well, since your sean case probably has an M serial TECHNICALLY speaking you'd need the Mk3 dial I think but I used a Mk2 dial in my Sean build (Basically the same setup as yours) and I really don't care if it's wrong. By the time someone pulls the bracelet off to check the serial they'll know it's fake anyway so why bother fretting about letter spacing over a gap of a few years? My dial was replaced, I got an older one in great shape! As far as you know... What engine is under the hood of your build?
irolexu Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Posted October 1, 2012 Genuine 3135 movement. Only thing rep about this is the case and bracelet.
irolexu Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Posted October 1, 2012 And one more thing who can remove the engraving and do custom serial along with high quality engravings? Might as well convert it to an F series with unique number and ad a damn T! lol
fidhle007 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 I think Phong is the source for the engraving these days... Where did you find your movement? I'm considering one for my build but I can't swallow the huge expense. There's nothing on ebay for less then $2k...
irolexu Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Posted October 1, 2012 PM me ill give you some insight on how to get a gen movement
