3135 Date Disc from ST

I'm curious why the Star Time Rolex "Style" 3135 Date Disc uses open 6's but only on 16 and 26...   I've heard of open 6 and 9 date wheels, but this seems strange to me.  Curious what the rolex experts think.  I was hoping to find a cheaper alternative to a GEN 3135 Date Disc for my JF 16610, but clearly this won't work.  :angry2:

I've never seen an open 6 and a closed 9 on a 3135 disc, nor on a 3035 for that matter. You may want to ask if its actually a actual picture of what you're going to receive.

But for whats its worth, I've bought many date discs for 3135 and 3035 in my 20+ years of dealing with Rolex watches and never kept or used an aftermarket disc on a cal 3135.

Mainly because they never lign up properly but sometimes the font/size is off....on top of the alignment problem. Spare the headache of wasting money on a few discs that won't solve your problem and get a genuine disc. With Luck you'll find one for $100 on the bay, and be done! Besides it will always be worth what you paid if not more.

 

Peace!

Thanks for the reply.  I sent Star Time an email and they replied that the Disc is exactly what is displayed in their photo (similar to mine above). 

 

You brought up another good point, that I should stop trying to be cheap and just buy the GEN Rolex Date Disc.  I think I'll start looking for one now.  :-)
