Folks:

I have a 02' K-Serial Submariner that is heavily damaged at a bike accident..... Long story short, my watch friend introduced me a very skillful watchmaker who can "re-make" the dial.

I already have 7 Rolex watches. So, I'd like to make one unique that bears my name on the dial.

Thoughts and comments on the dial wordings, please.

Very much appreciated!

Charles

If you like it I guess that is all that matters.
To me it might as well be a knock off or even some other brand like an Invicta that you do this to.

Also "Made in USA" ? Id leave that off as it is not made in the USA.

Other wording, well I like it just like it comes from the factory

Sorry, thats my worthless two cents but you did ask.

Again as I said it is your watch and you should do what you want with it

Only suggestion I can give you is buy another dial (non rolex) to do this to and keep all the original parts so it can be switched back

what "advice" were you seeking?

As for the thoughts and comments of the dial - "unique" comes to mind and and that is about it.
My 2 pence.

"Timex" would be so cool...
