2. If the dial was an original dial why not re apply the original Coronet to it? After all it would be more original refinished than the other option .
My overall take is that a big percentage of these dials are not original Rolex base dials that have been refinished but 100% aftermarket .
Legally, printing Rolex on an unoriginal dial is trademark infringement as is making the Coronet and using it on a dial .
So this refinished tag in many cases is just a smoke screen imho

So is the dial you're talking about an original dial or a complete fake?
