Tapestry dial question
I have the opportunity to pick up a 16013 with the well known tapestry dial.
But from what year did they start making these? Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk |

Also, what is the exact dial layout and year from the movie American Psycho?

Why not just get the 16233 in the same combination? You will get the 3135 movement, sapphire crystal, and the same looks. 16013 has the acrylic crystal and older movement. |

I love the older one. I have a 16013 now, but I can trade it in for the Tapestry one Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk |

Here are four different dials. Which one is the right one from the movie?

I had a day date with the tapestry. Loved it, it gave a great depth to the dial...

I had the 16233 2 tone champagne with the Tapestry dial, great watch but after trying on a 126233 (modern 2 tone DJ) I couldn't go back to the 16233 it just felt too flimsy. Otherwise, if it's your thing then by all means go for it. It's the exact one from American Psycho.

Again. Look at my previous post. The edge of the dial (the minute markers) has 4 different versions. Have found nothing so far online on which specific model it is Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk |

My wife has a 1997 26mm DJ with diamond bezel and Tapestry dial and it's just an awesome looking watch. You gotta love the Tapestry!

The grey tapestry is my favorite.

But even then, in movies they often use props or look-a-likes, so maybe it's not even a real Rolex. Could even be a Seiko |

I thought I heard that the one in the movie had a rail track chapter ring?

My first Rolex - 16220 SS Datejust with tapestry dial bought in 1989. Still have it, haven't worn in ages, now I'm going to go get it and wear it.

I still have it. I think the Tapestry dial is subtle, but interesting.

I don’t think it´s a railroad tapestry, as these were mostly used on the 16233. I think I have the exact config from American Psycho: 16013 with Stick marker tapestry dial in champange: Here you go: Gesendet von iPad mit Tapatalk |

Sorry I missed replying earlier. My comment regarding railroad is related to the minute markers that are lined at the edges this the rail road inference. The dial in the photo I commented on had the lines. If I had to describe it, a tapestry dial with railroad indices. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Personally I think the tapestry dial makes it look like a wannabe sea-master but I know I I'm going to get a lot of hate for saying this...just my opinion!
