No way....unless it's without a premium.

If the dial (forget the tiffany part) is genuine, then yes.
I wouldn't pay a premium for Tiffany though. Proving it's original without any paperwork is pretty much impossible. |

If I was really good to identify (for sure and by myself) a genuine Tiffany dial, I'll buy it. But I'm not.

I wouldn’t pay a premium, but would still consider the watch based on condition. Good luck!!

I'd like to have such experience to identify a good one and I don't know if someone can do that. |

I wouldn't buy a Tiffany dial even WITH proper papers. Way too expensive for what it is.
And I would especially avoid them without papers. Why? Even if there was no additional premium to the price, I'd be too worried that "Tiffany" was added later (faked) on a genuine dial, killing its value. |

I had a 5712 1R with T dial with all the original packaging and everything, didn't really do much for me, flipped it in no time and took a slight loss |

I would not agree with (some) others who state that this is not for them.... at a discount for damaged dial, I'm in!

I’d consider it, if the dial looked right. Love Tiffany myself.

Kind of like painting the white "Submariner" red on a regular old 1680? Hmm. Luckily you the buyer get to decide if you trust a watch to be genuine.

Perhaps, but that example would be easier to spot as a fake. You also have the issue of the correct serial-number range for a red 1680, so it wouldn't be as simple as just painting a white 1680 dial with red.

Sure, but my point is how to spot a fake 1680 red has been a topic on this forum for years. There have been enough fake/real examples to compare and folks can now spot them. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I don't see a high volume of fake/real Tiffany examples to compare. My opinion doesn't really matter here. I've handled enough of these over the years, I as a buyer have confidence in my watches.

Without the papers you probably buy a doctored or franked watch.

No, too many fake/doctored watch and/or papers. Not worth the premium.

Exactly, watches without papers must be fake or doctored.

Hmmm depends on the condition. Can always service the watch at Rolex center

Curious... why no premium for a Tiffany dial? Isn’t the tiny variations of text on dials a big part of what defines vintage Rolex?

Start with this premise: All Tiffany dial Rolexes are fake.
Work your way up from there.
