yachtmaster Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 So the seller has got 2 more dials, and at very cheap prices. One is white and the other has some patina and is yellowish. I've been comparing pics to gen for hours and the white one looks gen to me(or could be a very good refinish), but im not 100% sure about the yellow one so Im going for the white one. Chieftang was right, there are different variations of these dials, centered L in Rolex and not centered. But the one thing that I noticed was that most of 2 in the 200m in the gens look the same. Theres like a little feet on the bottom left corner of the 2. But in all its still hard to tell for me. here are the pics of 2 more dials. Can anybody tell?

freddy333 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Now that I see the same seller has the exact same dial, but with yellowed lume, I am even more persuaded that both are newly minted aftermarkets. However, with that said, I prefer the white lume version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I agree with freddy. Here's a dial from a guy- see the Beyeler on the back and the price- $850.00- his price might be double what I think it should be, but people aren't giving the real ones away. http://cgi.ebay.com/ROLEX-SUBMARINER-BLACK...1742.m153.l1262 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 The yellowish one is not gen IMO. The white one... I could go either way. But the more I look at it, the less confident in it being gen I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I am with Alligoat. And like I said previously, buy the seller 1st. That is the best way to increase your odds of getting what you paid for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yachtmaster Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 DAmn, you guys got me thinking. Thanks a lot for your responses. I really appreciate it. check this gen 1680 from TZ from a reputable seller. L in RoLex is centered under the crown. so there are both. Anyways, I will buy the buyer first. Seller is a old lady and got it from her husbands watchmarker that passed. The old lady and husband were given a few vintage dials that are gen from the watchmarker and listed it on the bay. Ill let you guys know how it goes when I meet the person to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
