Service Dials

It might seem a stupid question to some, but what are the 'tells' on a service dial, or does this differ model to model ?

If any dial has to be replaced by Rolex which is quite rare it will be replaced with a dial thats as close as possible to the original production year dial, and there is nothing on dial to say its been replaced at routine service. Today dials are still made in 3 different factories now all owned by Rolex, so there always will be, and always have been, tiny variations to most all dials over the past 50 odd years.
