Why do you think it's a fake ?

I think it's a DateJust 36mm 116200 with "Black Roman Jubile" dial . This dial is no more available but was until 2010. Bracelet is an oyster 72600.

I agree, the dial you're showing is real and was available (still is) on the 116188 through 116243 but does not have the printed lines in front and after "Datejust" as per the OP's picture.

This dial was available until last year for 116200 SS datejust, as well as for Rolesor 116234 models and WG leather models 116139. It have white Roman letters, and doesn't appear in 2011/12 master catalog.

The one you're referring , and still available, for 116243 and 116188 is different with Yellow Roman letters on it.





The printed lines in front and after "Datejust" on the OP picture is just a reflection of light, because the etching is embossed .


@PADI it's not a TT WG DJ, it's a 116200 with SS domed bezel.

looks like light reflecting off the raised "plinth" that the text is on, it does to me any way.

Strange post from the OP, why not ask specific questions, seemed like he was fishing.

Hi Diesel.

Sorry, not sure what is strange about OP. Originally i posted in the General Discussion section therefore, simply a general question!

The picture was originally posted in Rolex Gallery Section. Titled: 'Your DateJust gallery for this evening'

For future reference i will make my questions, specific
