Help Verify Authenticity on Submariner Dial






Could someone kindly help me verify if this is a genuine dial, and explain why the back the dial is black? Thank you in advance for your help.

...hmmmm...

...something should stand out and slap you right in the face...

...unless I am missing something MYSELF...

...LOOK closely at SWISS MADE on the bottom.

...aside from this post, WELCOME to the BEST Rolex Forums on the planet!!

The indices look off to me as well. They have a domed appearance when not looking straight down on them.

I am a newbie, but the spaces between "Oyster Perpetual Date" look too wide to me, also should the "Swiss Made" be within the 28 and 32 minute markers !

Actually the "mark 1" Submariner LV dials have the s and e of "swiss made" right above those 2 marks and the O in Rolex is certainly oval?? Not so sure I would dismiss so quickly.

Hey, it happens. You are STILL one of the most knowledgeable Rolex experts that I know, and value your input. If you don't make a mistake every now and then, it means your not doing anything!
