Looks good to me. I agree that the dial is most likely aftermarket.

An original dial for your watch would be without diamonds.

Looks OK but the dial is aftermarket. Next time, ask if it's real and *then* buy it..

u can always change dial; no biggie, matter most is the movement! Pop the back for inspection; if it looks good, the deal overall is good. Vintage movements last forever b/c they are vintages =D Welcome to the vintage club

I predict ur movement may be a 1560 or 1570...

If it's a 1570, that's actually on the high side, price-wise. I thought it was a 3035, since the aftermarket dial is flat, and the flat dial won't fit the 1570 (has to be pie-pan). 3035 movement is 1500-1800, case is 150-300, band is 180-350, aftermarket diamond dial is 200-400, I'd say you did fine if it's quick-set.

You don't have to go buy a new crystal, just use some Polywatch and you'll be good.

watch is original except fo rthe aftermarket dial, some would say counterfiet as it has the rolex logo and name on it, in answering Kiwinz question about the interesting clasp, double coronet clasps were made from early 80's for about 6 years on steel 62510h bands only, never two tone.
