About 6 in 1680 red MK IV dial
In my first post in this forum (apologise because my very poor english), I have a question: is it possible to find a MK IV dial meter first (660 ft), with the first 6 open, and second 6 closed? Looking forward your answers, have a nice holidays !!!

A MK IV dial will have consistent slightly open sixes. ——— IG: @onthedial Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Todos los seis deben tener el mismo grado de apertura. Podría ser un dial restaurado. Cuidado!

Might have been touched-up, if so, very poorly. Never have seen a honked-up looking "6" like on left, or a closed six(on right)--except on a Mk/6 dial.

Yes, of course. This is a pic from the MK IV red I’m asking for. I’m really interested to buy it but... I’m not sure about the two 6 in the ft. In the dial.
One is open, and the other is closed. Enviado desde mi iPhone utilizando Tapatalk |

I would suggest something’s amiss with that dial. Perhaps a touch-up was done somewhere along the line.

Neither "6" is correct, period. It will always be controversial and not worth the entry fee for accepted factory original "red" subs in my opinion. What is the asking price for said red/1680?

if it is touched up its been done well... need better and close up photos to compare properly - at a glance it looks like a legit 1680 red MKIV but with the peculiar 6's - but the fakers are getting better all the tim
whay is the serial number on the case? rolex dials are not strangers to smudges - my '67 5513 had a wonky crown... |
