Rolex Sub 16800 dial

[lazarini]

Oka this looks to me like a 16610 redial with the white gold marker surroundings removed and vintage loomed to give it a 16800 look ... the markers just seam to small for a 16800 dial ... opinions gentlemen.

Definitely a recent vintage (aftermarket) dial. But other than the too narrow markers at 6 & 9, it looks well done to me. Probably the same source as my last DRSD dial. If you can find an artist willing to try his hand at widening those markers & reluming (or repainting) all of the lume to a more realistic color, it could be a winner.

I saw this one also on the bay.

But markers are a bit too shallow in my opinion.

Hey laz,

Did you buy that dial- somebody in Germany- rolex 1665- bought it? Was that you?

16800 matte dials are getting hard to find! They're the new vintage.

[lazarini]

No actually i passed due to size of the markers ... and yea i agree with u on the NEW vintage comment ...

regards laz

At $150usd, I still figure it's a good deal. That's what I paid for an aftermarket 5513 dial. It's cheaper than an NDTrading dial at $400!
