Noticed something weird with my Sub
Looked at my watch today and noticed an indent at the center of the dial.
I highlighted the indent in question

I knew what this was before I even clicked the thread... Maybe I am spending too much time around here!
As stated, perfectly normal, most have the dimple.... |

I call it the dimple dial. Although it is typical, not all Rolex dials have it.
Personally I would prefer the dial to be flat But no one is listening:) I suspect it is just a effect of the machine that punches the hole in the dial for the hands. A while back I asked about it as well, One fellow offered that it provided extra structural strength to the dial ... I highly doubt any benefit to that as the second hand is as delicate as can be yet remains strong and protected under the crystal.

Totally normal. But this is why I prefer matte dials. Or white. Just my thing.
