Beautiful Watch in Great Condition. I don't see anything obviously wrong. Looks like a Mk1 Dial. I hope it IS genuine.

Authentic? Yes.
Original? Doubtful. I would think that a 7MM SN would've had a matte dial originally, so I'd say the dial and hands are service replacements. Even if it was a low-SN transitional piece, an original gloss dial would be a MK.1 (no hyphen), and this is a Mk.2 (hypen) dial. There are a lot of transitional 16660s with service dials out there, as the first run dials had issues with cracking (aka "spider web" dials). It was a known issue, and Rolex would replace these "defective" dials free of charge at the owner's request. Ironically, the later/service dial on this watch also has some cracking/crazing. Very nice piece regardless! ![]() |

Agreed genuine.
I am sure the hands are not original a
