Update on the Chuck Yeager Rolex in Japan.

The watch is a genuine Rolex. But the letters "Chuck Yeager" was done with a laser printing system as an after market add on. About 100 were made.

Of course if you take this to Rolex Japan for service, it will come back without the CY dial.

Under Japanese trademark laws, they replace all tampered dials with an original Rolex dial, then charge you for this service.
