It's already a well documented and discussed topic.
There's plenty of pictures and threads on this forum regarding the minor font changes!

Many Rolex dials over the years have had minor variations, and this is nothing new to world of collectors and WIS's of the world!

Just one dial in the 2011-2012 timeframe. You can look for yourself at the entire dial catalog at the URL in the image.



EDIT: I think I may have misunderstood the original question - was thinking OP meant additional dial. IDK - Font or spacing may have changed.

Yip. I prefer the older style as well. The Sub has similar changes. It is minute though.

Rasta crown is significantly different and an oddity in terms of crown shape you would have to go far back to the gilt Bart dials to find such an odd crown. The futuristic looking "S" make it even more so
