Well, I hope to see you soon in Canada if not before. Will bring some watches along...

I hope to see you too.
You will bring me some watches? Nice idea, but one Rolex will be enough.
Kind regards
Volker

nice pics of a nice dial, but i thought macro is something else...

And a real sub dial seams also to be something else...
(at least if you follow the opinions on the dial in the german speaking branch)

Hi Guys,

I just checked what you guys wrote in the German forum, and for now, I am stunned. Obviously, I am withdrawing this dial from selling it. I am actualy taking it to my Rolex certified watchmaker here in Chicago and will have it checked out. I do not want to sell a fake dial, that would be highly embarassing for me. I will keep you updated on the progress. It will take some time, I am under stress right now. Thanks for the comments though. What a challenge to find a good vintage dial. I got this dial from a pretty welknown greymarket dealer in the US. Well, we will see what I can find out.

I hope you come out OK on this Boris!

I got in touch with the seller of this dial and he is taking the dial back and reimbursing me. So I got lucky I guess?

Another example of "buy the seller, not the item". The dial is definately not genuine.

Thanks to this forum and the guys who told me.
