Hey guys, would anyone please be able to tell me if this "tiffany" dial is genuine or mounted afterwards? Reason I am asking is because the black squares on the left side of the dial is almost touching the rehaut whereas the right side looks better. Could be angle of photo of course, but it really looks like someone have been there and maybe switching dials?

Also, I am having a hard time distinguishing the dial from this aftermarket version: https://barakwatches.com/tiffany-turquoise-dial-for-rolex-oyster-perpetual-41mm-124300-caliber-3230/

No it's fake. Look at the dial Coronet.

The edges actually look a bit thinner than the photos I can find on CH24... This watch is on auction and I am thinking of bidding on it (Catawiki). Expert valued it at 45-50k euros

The dial doesn't even look square to me. The marker (black square) at 12 o'clock looks slightly to left of centre to me. And that could explain what you're noticing about the left side being closer to the rehaut than the right.

Thanks for your input, yes I noticed that now. Would also indicate that someone swaped dials

Help me take this one down guys so no one gets scammed off probably like 30k euros. For now the auction is at 12 500 euros, which maybe is fair for the custom dial but either way it should be disclosed as a custom dial. Shit like this really gets on my nerves

yes you would think so. Either that or some idiot took it apart to confirm it's authenticity, and then didn't put it back together perfectly. But given it's price and the fact it's a high end auction, I would agree with your first theory.
