I'm not convinced by this dial. The texture effect doesn't look right either to me. What reference is it?

Here a half waffle of mine, but opposite layout. Mine's a 2652.


The half-waffle dial pattern with a plain central section is something I seem to have seen more often on reference 2782, and more rarely on reference 2652. However, I have not noticed this configuration on caliber 505 references such as 2887 or 2852.

A nice example of reference 2782 found online.


My impression is that this configuration is less commonly encountered than the reverse layout, such as the lovely exam shared by @cristos71

And of course, we should not forget the black waffle dial… it deserves some love too! 🤭
