Rolex Daytona Dial

Is this Black MOP with White Gold Roman Numbers a factory dial option?

It is a factory option. But the one you have shown seems to be aftermarket.

i'm no expert on this but i doubt any genuine rolex dial would have the holes drilled so far off center.

It does not appear genuine.

Holes don't seem centered.

Look at Red Daytona text. Very close to subdial on left, far away on right.

Rolex is thin and uneven.

The applied Roman's seem rounded and not sharp.

Pass.

I'm extremely new to this game, but why would there be a "T" on either side of the "Swiss Made" for a dial with no "T" content? A generic print job?

Fake dial
They do offer a dial like that on the TT or all Gold models
not on SS.

DAYTONA
I............I
the D and A should align with the two subdial markers that are around the 60
