I've seen some of these Datejusts with refinished dials in various colors at a local Rolex AD here in Dallas where they are sold in the main part of the store away from their Rolex boutique. According to them, these very colorful, refinished, Datejusts sell very well.

So are these dials actually made by Rolex?

They are probably genuine dials but they are refinished.

If you're thinking about buying that watch hold off. I am almost positive that is the watch I purchased back in January. I took it to the local AD to have it checked out. The watch maker there said it was "beyond repair". The case back was badly warped and had serious water damage at some point. I ended up sending it back for a refund. I think I have a picture on my old phone, I'll look when I get home.

You be the judge. It's looks like the watch to me. I wish I had a photos of it on my wrist but that's all I have. Good luck!!

Yes, they are very popular, WBAW in LA has a rainbow going on. Very nice. :)
