Thx Pav. I also just noticed in Stefano's pictures that all of the authentic dials have the "II" after "EXPLORER" more or less aligned under both letters "DA" in "DATE"

Note that the Demesy dial appears to have an additional flaw in that the "II" is positioned almost entirely under the "A"

Also note the similarity between the two dials on the high priced sites with this being offered on ebay as so-called "refinished" by seller often called out here on TRF (although ironically this one is nearer to the correct originals with respect to the location of the "L" in "ROLEX" and the "II" after "EXPLORER" Go figure
