What is it you are trying to know with the (spec?) of the dial?

Its a GMT MASTER II 16713 Slate Diamond/Ruby Dial with what they call the Root Beer Bezel insert at a guess around late 1980s 1990s .

The rubies on that look purplish, Should be pinkish/red, and the diamond markers look off on color from one another, Which is why I'm assuming aftermarket. A close up would help to see rest of the details on the dial. Should be a darker slate

Like I said, might be the pic not "pick" lol sorry I'm on my iPhone

Pretty sure for it to be a Rolex dial the diamonds would have to be single cut not full cut

That's looks like an aftermarket dial.

Have to agree but the picture is not the best but it looks fine.
