Is it a T or U serial, in which case it could possibly be an T<25 marked dial that had luminova rather than tritium originally applied to the dial

Shine a UV light on it. That could give you some answers.

U serial was when Rolex transitioned from tritium to luminova. It is speculated that there was a run of T marked dials that had luminova from the factory. Tongue in check referred to as tritinova.
I had a U series 16613 that had a T marked dial but was clearly luminova. It was a factory original, non serviced watch. There's a few threads floating around on this topic. |
