Hi

I am new to this forum and it is hoped, respectable members will accept me.

Regarding the original hands of the Rolex 1665 SEA-DWELLER that comes with a Rail Dial, kindly advise whether the hands are white gold or just stainless-steel.

Thank you.

Hi

Thanks for the response and advice.

Effectively, what would the color of the hands be?

Thank you.

Well if they had a rhodium like plating then the hands would have a silver metal coloured appearance.
