Rolex 5512 gilt on ebay

There are currently 2 Rolex 5512 with gilt dials on ebay. One is from 1961 and a 2 liner with PCG. My question is shouldn't this year model have a gilt chapter ring dial?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/182425575924...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

The other one is a 4 liner but it seems that the dial has been water damaged? Is he asking too much considering the condition of his watch? Thanks.

I would stay way from eBay. Just personal preference. Mabuhay.

Not an expert on these but the first one is a seller on here as well. Wonder why he didn't list it here. Not that it means anything...

I only buy mostly parts on ebay. Just so happen I was browsing when I spotted these subs for auction.

First one has a later dial. Both examples are quite damaged and priced much lower than a mint example.

So my hunch is right that it should have a gilt dial with chapter ring.
