Not a "mistake," just a variation. No resale difference.

Welcome to TRF!
 As stated, it is just a variation. Rolex has varied dial fonts several times during the ages. An example is the "Oval O" in "ROLEX" of the first Sub LV's, and even the Rolex coronet has been changes over the times:  (pic by Mike).

On the variant note, has anyone ever heard of a few 16710's having "//" on the dial and not the II or ll?
