Probably not. It's a custom, aftermarket dial on a submariner. They sell the gen dial, slap on the custom, aftermarket dial and make more money. It's not a DSSD.

Personally I'll never understand ones like this. Why would you want the gen dial pulled and replaced with an aftermarket one. Those who are familiar will assume its not gen due to the inconsistencies vs what should be there. Also, I would think this has a negative impact on resale as a gen dial costs several hundred and you could not have Rolex service it without returning it to gen dial.

Insert is aftermarket, end links are too, case has been polished many many times... Damaged watch that's been put back together with aftermarket parts I'd say.

Are those aftermarket parts made by Rolex?


...

'Aftermarket' means they are made by a third party - not linked to the original manufacturer.

The handle broke, so they replaced it, then the blade was worn out, so they replaced that too, but in their eyes it was still the same axe, even though nothing was original...
