Strange defect on insert on my Tudor 79090
Previous two sellers had not disclosed this, but there is a booger on the 25 marker on the bezel insert. I also noticed the pip is luminescent indicating a possible service replacement. The hands also glow.
Any thoughts on how a defect like this could go unnoticed by Rolex? Is it possible that this insert is aftermarket? Photos:   Thanks |

Your insert appears to have thinner fonts than mine, which is 310xxx (1992 sale date).

Yes, I have noticed this as well. I'm wondering if this is some non-genuine aftermarket replacement or something.
