Could anyone please help me with this watch it’s a 1990 16238 Datejust Reference E.
I am unable to find anything about the dial. It isn’t white, silver or champagne it is a very light pinkish salmon with round diamonds.
Any information on the watch would be greatly appreciated as I’ve just inherited it. Thanks

A white dial that has discolored with age? If you have the original documents it may state the specifications when new.

Looks like a genuine Rolex pinball diamond dial to me. Probably used to be white, but the lacquer dial has likely changed color a bit with age to a warmer tone.

This looks like a white dial turned cream with time. It's actually kind of nice.
