I think you have to have 10 posts to be able to add a photo. I’ve never seen a Rolex without Swiss Made on it

are you saying

1) you have a Rolex
2) your Rolex does not say Swiss Made on dial at 6:00
3) you are not sure how much the watch is worth

If it doesn't say anything at 6:00 then it is probably a fake, but I'm not sure how old your watch is, and I'm not too familiar with vintage dials

Well that would depend on the age of the watch if from 1998 to around 2000 Swiss only dials were then used at 6 o'clock, from 2000 on Swiss Made so dial if genuine Rolex should have one or the other.

If you are asking for authentication, then you will have to wait until you have 10 posts and then post pictures of the watch and the dial.

I was going to write the same thing. Commas matter as long as we are nitpicking proper English. Plus, it would be the past tense of the verb speak which is spoke as it was written as a statement or question about a historical figure.
