The red paint in the last "A" of DAYTONA has run into the seconds subdial. Stay clear of this one.

Looks like a reflection to me. You can see the same thing in the picture of the gen watch if you blow it up.

I don't like how there is no silver metal around the markers.

My opinion is it's a fake. One big glaring error, which can't be attributed to quality of pic.

Blimey for a Rolex Forum it's a very weak argument ....

The text doesn't look right. Unless it's my screen the text appears not to be very straight. Also the letter Os on the word Chr0n0meter look to be zeros.

If you look at the, "SWISS MADE" on the ROLEX DAYTONA and compare it to the Ebay Dial, there is a difference.

On the Rolex Daytona the Last S in SWISS is in a different location than on the Ebay dial.

Also, a more glaring difference. Look at the M on "MADE" on the Ebay dial. The first leg of the M is on the 5 Second mark and on the DAYTONA dial it is the Last Leg of the M that is on the 5 second mark.

What do you think about that? Are all of our original dials printed in the exact same or are they slightly different?

Have it authenticated, and if it's not genuine, go from there to get your money back. Seller has good feedback and 14-day money back policy, so hopefully you should be good.

I saw that as well but then pulled up a bunch of Daytona images from the web with slight location variation. I then looked at other models and noticed the same thing. My conclusion is that slight positional changes happen, whether due to production variation or model year I don't know.
