Authenticity Check

Hi All,

Bought my first rolex this past week - Date 15210. Im a bit concerned about whether this is an all original rolex. The dial is worrying me as the usual "T Swiss Made T" is not present on mine ("T Swiss T"). Also the dial does not seem to have the luminous dots on the hour markers as all other similar models i've seen do.

Below is mine:

Below is a link to the same model:

Thank you in advance for any insight.

You'll need better pictures I'm afraid.

Where did you buy it?

If you have any doubts I would suggest taking it to either a Rolex Service Center or Rolex AD. Let them check it out so you know 100%.

Looks like a sigma dial, which is a bit more sought-after (by some).
As mentioned, better pics are needed to confirm though.

Please see below. Im confident all parts are 'authentic' rolex. However, I dont know if this is a frankenstein watch pieced together from various other Rolex watches -- which would necessarily impact the value.
