I disagree with this, mine is a December 2010 V serial and has the 2 ticks. I feel that there is actually NO set pattern, both new and older versions are being sold with either..

bemik · 17 January 2011, 09:31 AM

I agree with GolfPunk.
I think Rolex picks dials based on whichever is available at the time.

moviefreak · 17 January 2011, 10:07 AM

Just do Daytona search on ebay and filter for 2000 and after models... Then start checking the images...

I saw more single tick dials on the newer models... But I can always be wrong...

Jakey · 20 January 2011, 09:16 PM

Hi Eduardo,
I done exactly that, I noted that the older Daytonas' had a '2 tick' compared with the newer models.
I have just purchased a Daytona and that model is a "V" with a single tick my serial number is V9*****
Be interested to see what the conclusion is. Or as others have said it might be the randomness of the selection at the time. But what does it mean ? why have '2' ticks? this is an unusual feature is it not ?

The dials with short markers at 27min and 33min are mostly present on the newer watches.. There is no big difference or a big deal about the dials..
I really like the one with short markers since the sub dials have a slightly darker color..like a modern Patrizzi dial...

... and the other dials with long markers have more shiny subdial rings...

Ok here is a question for you all that I hope you can answer as its driving me mad. I have a Rolex Daytona V serial 2009 and G 2011 both white dial. I have noticed differences in both watches the V has old style font and spacing looks tight.

On new G serial it's newer simple font on Oyster Perpetual but has a larger space between both words and also has a bigger space on COSMOGRAPH being almost set like COSMOGR APH.

The other difference is DAYTONA is slightly lighter red and D is less stretched than on V serial number.

Has anyone else noticed this as they are both UK watches and is very strange to see they have these differences.

nauticajoe · 8 April 2012, 07:49 AM

Ahh yes, the double vs. single tick. Here's my contribution - both are random serials:

z0mghenry · 8 April 2012, 08:03 AM

You guys are way more observative than me. Single tick, double tick, I would take either of them

Houghcarl · 8 April 2012, 08:27 AM

Mine are both white though single tick and it's just the text that is different I see you have two different colour faces there though.

kerytch · 8 April 2012, 08:37 AM

So rolex is not very consistent with their production design

Houghcarl · 9 April 2012, 04:40 AM

please see pics for your discussion

Roger1079 · 28 August 2014, 09:48 PM

You guys are all far more observant than I am. My 5 month old white dial has the single tic. Can't say anything for whether that is common though as it is the only example I have.

shay2nak · 29 August 2014, 04:27 AM

i like the double tick, shiny sub dials. Hope I can find one new at my AD when I get one next summer.

GsurgBM · 29 August 2014, 05:15 AM

My SS Daytona was bought in April 2014. From AD ordered from rolex (wasn't an in stock watch, was ordered by AD from Rolex for me). Double tick.

GolfPunk · 5 September 2014, 06:51 AM

I believe the newer black dials are double ticks but all the white dials have one tick

Jocke · 5 September 2014, 06:55 AM

If I look too long to this I will get tics.

tkerrmd · 5 September 2014, 08:33 AM

Has there been any pattern established here? My white, random serial Daytona has the single-tick dial and it was ordered months ago and delivered Oct 2014.

fixinbones · 31 October 2014, 08:05 AM

I have an F serial number that's about 8-9 years old with double ticks

Ken B · 31 October 2014, 08:24 AM

This is a pretty old thread but my contribution is this. I got my Daytona from the AD in Aug 2014. They had it 1 day from the factory. It has a Single tick. N Serial number

That will actually be a random serial number (8 digits) that just happens to start with an N

ceconomakis · 31 October 2014, 08:08 PM

Double ticks are with the blue Lume?
