Very weird, the JJF isn't bothering me more than the fact they engraved Swiss on it, that seems strange to me.

I've seen usually very little inscription on the back and I wouldn't get the need to specify Swiss

Marker alignement with the dots doesn't seem right to me either

Yes it’s real. There’s a few dial manufacturers for Patek, Donzé for enamel dials, Cadrans Fluckiger and this one which is Singer.

Most of the newer dials are made by CF, they were bought by Patek.

Thanks man, you seems to have real knowledge so I will ask you also about this dial, what do you think?
It looks 100% gen to me, it is a LED dial.

Yes it’s real. I wouldn’t pay any extra for an LED dial though.

Sorry for my ignorance but what is a LED dial? Thanks

It is a particular type of dial done in the end of 2008 and through 2009.

It has larger and fewer stripes on the dial.
LED means large embossed dial.
See the difference between the first ones and the last one.

Ah yes, I knew there were different versions of the dial, but I didn't know that this one was called LED :) Thank you!

Thanks man, really helpful. Since it is quite rare finding a dial in sale was really strange to me so I was questioning if it was gen.
I really love and prefer that dial instead of the normal one! The price on c24 is not bad though.
Also now I remember everybody telling that the v6 sw200 5711 dial was bad because of the big stripes but it looks really really similar to the led dial...

The sw200 might look similar but it’s very bad executed. Nothing close to gen except the dw

I do have to tell you the dial was not bad at all, the indices were wrong but I really liked the dial.
