Questions on 1680 "Red" sub dials
First off, is there such a thing as a two line dial with Submariner in red? Second of all, is this a factory dial?

It's not a 1680 because they have a date. It looks like a paint-job on a gilt/minute track m-first 5512 dial to me.

Wow, what a find.
YES, they made these RED 3 LINERS with gold lettering for the Submariner 6538. Very rare and when I saw watches for sale, they were costly. Doesn't look bad either the dial. |

Very fake...
The real "double red" dial does not look like that at all...

Don't confuse the very, very rare 6538 dials with partial red text with a DRSD. Two completely different watches from different eras.
This one is trying to be a 6538.

I seemed to have stirred up a hornets nest! I found this image on a Yahoo image search looking for a red sub dial. I was just curious if this was a factory dial at some point or not.
