Yes, I particularly like the nonluminous doorstop dial (and nonluminous alpha hands!).

Or your 1016 to me and buy a couple of these...馃槈 Interesting look with the gold bezel, I would expect it to be silver.

Why is T (tritium) mentioned on the dial? I don't see no lume.

Probably because the same dial print was used for a luminous dial variant.

Yep. Let me clarify, though: I do love this one, but am probably not going to buy it. I just love looking at it!

My guess..since that's not your watch...
It's a service dial
You should first check the serial number, T SWISS T on Rolex's Dial first used in 1961's
So, when the serial number indicates the year under 1961's, probably it's a service dial.....IMO

According to the other pics, the inner case back is marked I 64 and SN is 1,0XX,XXX, which is approximately 1964, so I doubt this is a service dial based on what you say.

Ever wish for a "don't like" button?

I do.

I guess this smiley will have to serve.
