Rolex 16528 white sub dial questions

[timlo]

Hi all,

I am wondering when Rolex changed the sub dial colour of 16528 white from black to white? Did it begin with standard six dial?

The gold 16528 white dial sub registers was gold; it was never black.
The white dial with black sub registers was the 16520 ( stainless ).

There were black sub dials for both 16520 and 16528. The sub dials of 16528 changed from black to gold and it was always black for 16520. I was asking when the 16528 made that change.
