Hello,

I am interested in this watch: https://www.vintagecaliber.com/colle...re-black-hands

I see that it has black hands, and I thought that black hands were only offered on Buckley DJs. I emailed the seller/site, and the response I got was "The handset is original Rolex and original to the watch: you can also see lacquered parts on the hour markers matching the handset."

I searched and searched but could not find a single DJ with a black dial. Is this truly a rare piece of did someone swap out the hands at one point?

Any help would be appreciated!
