smace, let also add another dial option I stupidly omitted in one of my senior moments.
There was a period of time where Rolex issued a recall on Radium dials out of concern about radition. These dials were replaced with gilt/gloss dials also marked "SWISS" but using the safer tritium compound.---a much cheaper option and absolutely correct.

Look at the original price of the reference.
The gloss/gilt dial was used after the recall.
