Actually, the original one is black rhodium-plated, not black paint 😒
This dial looks very problematic to me. Scripts & serif are a little bit too thick, and markers have been removed before.
Does anyone here own this dial style black or white without any lume?
interesting that you mentioned the markers have been removed before. may i know how do you spot that?
From my research about 1 year ago, I couldn’t find any black and white dial without lume.
I found only gold version that can be (example posted by @Peemacgee )
Just a question. I was reading about rhodium plating and I've read that jewelers do this (among one of the reasons) to get jewelry look extra bright and shiny (read: glossy). But looking at my phone the surface of the ebay example does'nt look shiny. It rather looks a bit grainy and non glossy. The surface also looks different then the other two rail track examples. Is it me?
