"thats it",,,,,,, wow... makes sence.

makes "perfect sence',,,why the chezzy 'meter'/foot/!!
you hit it michael! it just kicks me to try to figure out why "things" are as they are in these vintage rolex's! back when ever that was done/ (re-lume)
that poor watchmaker was out that day-pay!$

For me,,, its more then money!,,, from now on "this dial will be with this watch", why remove it since 1/2 is "still orignal"!? in fact maybe many years from now this too shall be some kind of 'wierd dial add that will be worth more money' for what was done? who knows,, we that collect these things, and try to stay "pure" in originality"! "that's by the way that keeps the "numbers" up$$$! vintage collectors have to keep things stright, storys right! it's what
makes this all worth doing! its like adding a "new motor" to a 1955 chev. 210 bel air,,,its ok,, it drives nice,, value still there and all. the orignal motor would have been nice, but its still cool!

(as long as the old "AM" radio is still working!!),,,haha

michael,,, you are a "dial god kid"!! thanx
