1601 dial

Hi all, would like to ask if anyone has any idea if the following dial is genuine? Most of the dials I have seen are glossy, while this is matte. And should the word "Datejust" be bigger/longer than "Rolex". Thanks in advance.

Looks like a linen pie pan.

Original, I don't know.

That's reassuring. Was thinking of getting a similar one.

Tks for all the replies!

Here is another one with a similar dial. The condition is better but the word "Datejust" is now longer then "Rolex". And the cyclops/magnification, does it look suspect? Now if this is original too, I would go for this due to the superior condition. Once again, tks all for help!!
