Cream dial Exp II. The bezel is wrong for a 1655, but right for a 16550! Congrats!

Very nice! It looks great! BTW, if you want to fill in the numbers on the bezel, you can go to a hobby shop and buy the paint & a small tipped brush. Personally I like it the way it is! Enjoy it,
Scott

Thanks Guys, I kind of like the bezel how it is. I wonder if it is possible to tell the difference from genuine rolex paint if someone paints it though.

Thanks guys, the only weird thing is that the papers say the band number is 7836 and it has a 93150. I know he never had it serviced or anything, it has never even been polished.I was thinking maybe they sold it to him like that.
