apcollector Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 Hi guys, Would you be able to tell me if the 5001 dial attached is genuine. The wording looks correct to me. Numbers looked aligned too. What do you guys think? Cheers, AP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could show a picture at an oblique angle (to see how reflective the subdials are) and a picture of the back (gen dial feet are in different position than rep dial) then I could give you a more definitive answer.

ILoveWatches! Posted January 5, 2017 Report Share Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) heres a gen, your pic looks like the numbers on the dial are a little skinner and the second track doesnt look as bright white and thick, and the 10 looks completely different from your pic compared to the gen pic I have. Lets see the back and the side angle of the dial. I could be wrong but im thnking its a rep dial. Hpepfully im wrong. Edited January 5, 2017 by ILoveWatches!

AP here are three more attached pictures. I hope this helps in telling if its gen. I'm trying to compare it to this thread here (but finding it difficult): Cheers, AP 17 hours ago, ILoveWatches! said: heres a gen, your pic looks like the numbers on the dial are a little skinner and the second track doesnt look as bright white and thick, and the 10 looks completely different from your pic compared to the gen pic I have.

Yes, i agree the 10 looks quite thicker in your picture, but i wonder if your picture is of the 5007 dial rather than the 5001 (mine). I've attached more pictures in my post above, i hope these help in deciding if its gen. Regards 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right, I had a feeling it wasn't gen, the overall quality of it didnt seem right. I now also noticed that the O and A in Automatic is slightly shifted to the right (the whole word is).

ILoveWatches! Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 If you didnt move the feet around then im thinkng this could be a get. Everything is nicely done but the word Automatic seems like its done with a differnt paint when they applied it to the dial, it looks thicker im 70% thinking its gen and 300% rep. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Here's v1 rep dial with feet position different than your dial. Unless v2 and up have new movements requiring new feet positions, I'm inclined to say it's gen Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtesting Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) A small bump, can anyone identify this dial as genuine? Edited February 22, 2017 by mrtesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apcollector Posted February 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 I'd say it's gen. rep ones have a more silvery finish to the sub dial and it looks quite different to the colour of the outer dial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
