Are All Older 1990’s Submariner Dials Prone To Spider Cracking?

[Rolexlover92]

Hey Everyone! My next watch will be a standard black bezel/Black Dial Rolex Submariner but ive been looking at the older models because I like the thinner lugs better and am not really a fan of the big beefy lugs on the standard Submariner. But I know that some of the dials on the older Submariner references are prone to Spidering or Spider Cracking which I don’t want to happen. Does anyone know which of the older Submariner references don’t have the issue with the dial Spider Cracking? Thanks!!

If you're after a 90's model that means 14060 or 16610. They generally don't suffer from cracking like the older watches.

It's seems to only really be an issue with the early gloss/white gold surround dials from the mid 80s. I've seen a few early 90s 14270s suffering from something similar, but not in the same numbers.

My L serial (1991) 16610 dial is fine, no cracking. Personally I think these spider 'exotic' dials are few in number and if the dial was going to degrade in that way, it'd already be apparent.
