Name of this bezel?

What is the name of this particular bezel on this 69178? I’ve learned the dial is called a string dial. Is the bezel called a “Diamond pyramid bezel”? I’m selling this for my MIL and need to be able to properly identify it.

Thanks in advance.

Aftermarket pyramid bezel.


Model would not be 69178 if it were an original configuration

Thanks sir. When you say aftermarket, do you mean the bezel was not manufactured by Rolex?
