Early 20th Century Rolex Dials Question
I've purchased a circa 2015 WW1 "Officer's Trench Watch" with a Rebberg 18 jewel movement marked "ROLEX" that appears to be completely original except for the leather strap. It's a beautiful piece with a dial that has lots of patina.
I'd like to wear this, but want to remove and save the original dial, replacing it with a brand new one identical to the original but without the patina.
I know it would be expensive, but are there any manufacturers that can make a new copper dial with fired enamel face and fired enamel silk screened printing that duplicates the original? The original dial will be saved.
The original hands will also need to be restored, but not replaced.

It's weird being the same age as old people.
