16570 advice
Just grabbed this off ebay. I am wondering if it is possible for the dial to be original given the P serial. Any advice is welcomed. Thanks in advance!
Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/311645444201 |

My main question, is it possible for a P serial to have a t25 dial?

A tritium dial in a P-serial 16570 would not be original to the watch. Not possible IMHO

OP, just get it checked out. A dodgy dial can be sorted easily. Price is a little low, but it's not that bad. I've seen a couple 16570s go low lately, they've always been a bit soft despite the fact they're an amazing piece

yea, i have a polar exp2 now, but i couldnt resist at that price, especially with SEL and those markers. i'm not really sweating it, given the ebay, paypal, and my credit card fraud protection, but you know, i'mjust hoping its a tight piece.
