Try to avoid refinished dials with vintage Rolex if at all possible.

So...no.

It all depends on why you are buying it.

You should always buy a watch becasue you like it.

If you really mean will I be able to sell it without a loss later on or for a profit, then you're buying for the wrong reasons in my opinion.

Refinished dials are not a problem if you like what you're buying and accept that you have not found a real bargain. Given the choice between a well refinished watch at half the price of one with a grubby untouched dial, I would go for the refinish every time.

After all, I have to look at it every day.

Poeple don't get upset about restored cars so what's the issue with watches, as long as you know what you're buying?
