New dial on an old watch
I’ve been longing for a matte dial triple 6 for quite sometime. I made the decision to use an aftermarket matte dial on my watch. I plan on using it as a place holder until I can get an original Rolex dial at a fair price. These dials in unrestored condit...
There are many chasing the same goal for matt 666 dial.

Great that you found
an original one. It is nice to be searching something and after finding it you have a nice feeling as long as all starts again...
