For everybody's information:

The Rolex Jubilee dial (the one with Rolex, Rolex embossed all over) is a certified chronometer but only has the TWO words on it....ROLEX and DATEJUST.

You will also notice that these words are NOT printed, but instead on a small maker's plate which is "stuck" onto the dial.

Don't forget swiss made in small text at the bottom.
It doesn't look like it was glued on top of the dial. It looks like the rest of the dial was cut into and engraved outside of the square.

That quote taken from me was from the other thread titled "my first rolex" this thread is "my first rollie"
