"SWISS MADE" - please help !
Is it possible for older Rolex models not to have "Swiss Made" on the dial or does it always mean that the dials was re painted ?

Don't touch that watch
Pic is not detailed enough but that California dial looks too crisp, same as case and strap. More detailed pics would help but I would not touch it. Smells of the f-word all over the place. |
