Rolex 16233 - R serie - Help on dial

Dear Rolex Forum enthusiast,
I have this 16233 R serie on this yellow dial.
Could you confirm that this dial is legit and not after market as I have never seen that kind of dial?
thank you for your help.

The champagne dialed, two-tone (aka bimetal) Datejust is perhaps the most iconic watch. Like the Sub is in the professional lineup.
As others said, it looks OK. Are you the buyer?

That dial is correct and authentic... it came in champagne, blue, black, silver, and white.
