Genuine Rolex Submariner No-date Bezel Insert?

Hello,

I'm thinking of picking this tritium pipped bezel insert up for my 14060. I foolishly swapped out the original bezel for one with a luminova pip during a service, and I'd like to rectify that.

The question: is it real? Looks good to me, but do the numbers look too close to the outer edge of the bezel? That's giving me pause, and I'd like another set of eyes to weigh in. Thanks in advance.

Sorry I can't help you with your question Austin. But just wanted to say I'm a fan of your channel and I enjoy your YouTube videos. Here's a free bump.

ah i too am in a similar situation but for a 79090 bezel that was replaced prior to my purchase. but tudor subs were getting dear at that point. Also a big fan of the watch symposium, keep it up Austin! Also 14060 is not truly vintage yet, so springer might see it in modern section or reference, good luck with the hunt

I had a 5512 on which the numbers were right up against the edge of the insert like this. It's a known thing.

I'm in Tokyo too!
