Is there anything nicer than a quality DRSD? All you need IMO. Enjoy my friend and welcome to the club :)

Curious to know about the variations in the dial, and how (and why) the red text came about on the 1665 DRSD? Was it intentional on the part of Rolex, or an error on the part of the dial suppliers?

I can't imagine Rolex would mistakenly acquire red text on their dials!? Simple design/typographic preference - in a sporty tone - I'd imagine. Red says sport/hot etc; think Ferrari, for example
