Rolex 5508 sub
I just came across this and wondered about opinions of the authenticity...from what is visible.

Looks more like a refinished dial than a genuine service dial.

Certainly NOT a Service dial, see the Swiss T -25 marking on the bottom, the depth rating is not correct spaced, 100 should start almost in line with the "S" in Submariner
and the writing should be gilt with silver Depth Rating. |
