TT Daytona

The below configuration is probably my favorite Daytona, but is it a frankenwatch? That is, Rolex doesn't make the TT Daytona with this dial, does it? Would Rolex remove the dial when you sent the watch in for maintenance?

I don't know if this watch is a frankenwatch or not.
The problem is that yunbeimingzhu136 has stolen this picture from ebay seller generalwar.

ioffer.com is riddled with fakes and stolen photographs of genuine watches.

I just did a Google picture search for TT Daytonas, so not sure who yunbeimingzhu136 is. Appears that the original post on ioffer is gone.

Anyone have any thoughts as to the watch itself and whether or not Rolex would have an issue with it during servicing?

I would just email generalwar about it and ask him the question. I have purchased from him in the past and he was always straight up with me. I will say it was a few years ago that I purchased from him.
