If I want to keep this dial, since it’s original to the watch, should I be able to and thus he should source the new dial on his own?
Another thing is that he viewed the photo in the thread and he doesn’t think the dial is damaged significantly and claims that there is plenty of lume on the 3o clock marker. I am of the opinion that there are trace amounts but 90% is gone. Am I crazy?

I haven’t been keeping up with Explorers. You mentioned 1988 in an earlier post and $5,000.
Are you saying a period correct dial for a 1988 Rolex Explorer is $5,000?
