Wrong dial

[gdubdj]

Hi there. I was recently gifted a Rolex datejust from my father. One that he had worn for thirty years. The condition was poor, so I wasted no time taking it to an AD to be sent for servicing. When I received the estimate for the overhaul, one of the things recommended to be replaced was the dial. I agreed to all of their recommendations.

Yesterday I went to pick it up and it was Amazing!! New crystal, new hands, new crown, new clasp and of course new dial. The dial however seemed much lighter in colour than the original grey, silver to be exact. Not being very familiar with the watch in the first place I chalked it up to it being new and the old one being fifty years old. But upon returning home, and comparing pictures it is clearly a different colour dial. The old one is dark grey with white lettering, the new one is silver with gold lettering.

I will be in contact with the AD in the morning. I am disappointed that it is not the same. Has anyone experienced something similar with Rolex? Is it a mistake? I can't see them substituting a dial without consulting me. Any feedback would be appreciated.
