Dial looks questionable! The crown does not look right.

Hmmm.. Seller looks ok.. You've got me

Blong · 10 June 2012, 02:03 PM

Shouldn't the crown be more on top of the L in Rolex? Perhaps a refinished dial?

crowncollection · 10 June 2012, 02:30 PM

I know these exist with Tiffany On the dial, called double signed dials, I have never owned one or seen the dial in real life. I think it's fairly uncommon, not sure it meets criteria for rare or not . Looks ok but I do not claim to be an expert in these, I am sure some vintage experts will advise.

Agree.
I'm not a Tiffany specialist as well.
I have one, and seen a couple.
Cartier and Tiffany models are rare and sell for a premium. But there are so many fakes...
With this watch, I have a problem with the crown and the underlined "O".

Very nice to hear from you though...

Yes,questionable at best and counterfeit at worst.

crowncollection · 11 June 2012, 10:55 AM

Public holiday in the state i live in Australia today, so had some spare time to hit my books, I cannot see any original Tiffany dial with an underlined letter O, secondly, I can find no dial where the words tiffany and co, are longer than the words below it on the dial " gmt master " like this one, the spacing seems wrong. Those are my thoughts anyway.

Norm, if that isn't a re-dial, its a one-of-a-kind. The swiss t<25 is not correct - along with the coronet. All the Tiffany dials I have seen in the past look like regular dials with the addition of the Tiffany script.

Prince Oysterdate · 12 June 2012, 12:03 PM

The dial looks all wrong, and even with that wear, the hands shouldn't be that corroded.

If water did that to the hands, its probably a leaky fake. If it isn't a leaky fake, then it still had water in it and the movement may be shot.

interesting

My thoughts exactly, the only thing added to the dial is the "Tiffany" write up. The rest should match the time period.

I have owned what I believe to be an original tiffany dial rolex...I sold it way too cheaply, one of my wish I didn't do that sales...but I did have it verified by several dealers who claim they could tell by the font, the paint, and the age to it. Yeah I am sure it could have still been faked anything is possible, but my font was slightly different then what you have here. Although I think you will find the majority of these have a font closer to what mine had. Really shouldn't have sold it, the non quickset got to me though. Here it is...

ncstate1201 · 23 June 2012, 06:50 AM

although I must say my photography skills were not great (still aren't) and in that pic it looks like it had a stainless crown, but it was 18k WG to match the bezel.
