    Hello! I don't understand, why on my watch it says only "Swiss Made", instead of "T SWISS MADE T"?
    Ref. 16013 - 1986.

    No luminous on the dial. Hands may or may not be lumed replacements.

    T Swiss T denotes that it has tritium.

    that watch appears to be luminova not tritium. Hence no T.

    Or a luminova watch ;) that doesn’t look like it’s from 86.

    but at that point the law was gone anyways so it wasn’t needed. Omega kept it untill 1999 on the Speedmaster pro when it changed. But many reduced are tritium and not marked as such.

    Thanks for the answers! So I understand that the dial is not the factory one, right? At least the original Rolex?

    Just enjoy wearing it instead of worrying that something is wrong with it. It is a good looking watch.

    I asked in other places and I was also told that it would be a service dial.
    I calmed down now, thank you very much for the answers! :)

    Good for you. It’s what it’s all about!
    But as a Dr I feel obliged to recommend that you should always put your eyes above your watch. Unless you can afford a minuet repeater that is.

    It seems to me the most suitable measure for my thin hand :)

    From what I learned and from the opinions I received, it is a service dial.
