COSC no date sub

[hooked]

Check out these 2 pics. The 1000ft=300m is different. One looks further apart than the other. My new sub looks perfectly centered like the first pic. Why would some be different than others.

[Steven79]

hmmmmmmmmm very interesting. I hope someone can fill us in.


my "M" 16613 has it like the first pic.

[Marrk]

Mine is a Z-series and it has the "goofy" letter spacing.

What series is yours, hooked?

[hooked]

mine is a Z series also

[catman911]

My 14060 is a M-series (M13XXXX) and has the weired extra spacing :(

[2careless]

My M36xxxx has the wider spacing too.

[walds11]

[Chappy]

My Z has the wider spacing

[Steven79]

lol now that i think about it... who cares!!! lol

My TT 16613 "M" has the close spacing.

My soon to arrive "M" sub ND has the "wide spacing"

I agree I alove them both! I just thought it was wierd. Here is one that sold here with the same spacing as mine.

It is a Z series also. I thought it might be all of the Z series were but evidently that is not the case.

Here are a couple more pics, so there are some out there.

[Welshwatchman]

My Z COSC has the wide spacing.

[doc_colton]

Is there a reason for the differences or is it just a quality control issue :thinking:

[2careless]

Just for completness, here are the dial printings on the "wider" dial. I do think this difference is just on the batch of the dials.

[14060m]

I have a "z" with the wide spacing

[JaySS]

Mine Z COSC has the wide spacing too :smokin:.

:cheers:

It seems like the wide spacing is more common. I would love to know why they are different.

[14060m]

Anyone have any ideas?

[Steven79]

My "M" two tone has the closer spacing.

My "M" Sub ND COSC has the wider spacing.

beats the heck outta me.

[Tools]

Anyone have any ideas?

Sure...

It's likely that there is more than one manufacturing factory or machinery for dials.

The specifications are probably for font style/size and location rather than exact dimensions and tolerances. There is some variety on dial printing throughout the Rolex line....and probably any other watch maker too.

[Lol-x]

Seems to me that someone setting up the dial set out got a bit too happy with the spacebar:
1000ft = _300m instead of
1000ft = 300m or
1000ft=300m

I expect this will be isolated to the batch lot of dials and Rolex will change the spacing in time.

[Steven79]

That means my overly spaced "M" Sub ND cosc will be worth milllions in the future!!!

lol jk, would be great though!

[hooked]

I don't know it looks like the normal spaced is harder to find. I wonder how many Rolex will make since they are going to discontinue the model.

[timackerman]

My M model has the wider spacing as well

[ukangs]

Mine is M32XXXX serial and closely spaced

[Parachrom]

Perhaps it was made on a Friday????lol

[Lol-x]

I Rolex subject to 'lemon laws' - might be one for the lawyers in the USA.

Then again, Rolex probably has an army of lawyers :banghead:

Stop, rewind, erase, rewind and play:

As I was saying mighty fine dials on those Subs :thumbsup: :rofl:

[rmcarlton]

My LV M48xxxx has the closer spaced version.

[adr]

wow :dude:

[Malcontent]

My Z has the wider spacing. Never noticed that before
