I was wondering about the same question. Assuming it's a service dial why it's missing some of the normal script?

Looking good :)

It would appear this watch is a 6917 -Date- with a 2035 caliber movement, This would explain the missing text on the dial.

Thanks for all the positive comments.
Yeah it looks like they changed the date dial even though it's not listed on the service agreement. I think it would have not look good with the new dial and maybe that's why they changed it.

The "superlative chronograph certified" lettering is now gone and I think it looks better. More minimalistic this way.

The service cost was $600 and they changed a BUNCH of parts on it. New hands, new dial, new clasp, new crown and many more.

Again, I am very pleased with it and more importantly, so it's my wife :)
