Hi all, I am seriously thinking about a 16014 and want to get a new dial for the one I have my eye on.
Can anyone suggest the best place to search for what dial is available for that model and also where would you look to buy one?

Any suggestions for a nice looking dial? I would prefer no linen or tapestry or Roman numerals.
Thanks for the help.
Cheers!

Alrighty, does anyone think Ebay is an OK place to buy a dial?

Does anyone have a 1601 or 16014 with a blue or white dial?
I've seen lots of linen and tapestry dials but would like something brighter and that stands out more. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Ebay is fine... Look for a mint dial you really like. Post them in this thread and
you'll get better advice.

Thanks, that makes sense.

Anyone have thoughts on something like this?
Any chance it is not genuine or re-touched etc?
Something I should look out for? I'm a newbie to this.
Thanks!

both look good. the first is older... no maker's mark.

Thanks! I kinda like the blue one, but that price is pretty high.
I wish there was some place where I could see the dials offered by Rolex for the 16014 so I knew what I could get.
Thanks again.
Cheers!
