Dear forum members,

Last time you helped me out with a suspicious 6240 case that I was able to return. I now got (not yet paid) a 6263 dial for the 18k version which I was years looking for. After the auction I requested some more photos of the backside.
Again I am no expert. The frontside looks good to me. The Rolex printing seems to be a little on the left compared to other examples. However the Singer row on the backside shows a different G than I have seen before. With a bar next to the round body that goes downwards. This bar seems to be missing in all examples I have seen. Might be just a variant but might as well be a reprint.
I was hoping someone can help me out with his knowledge.
Now the pics.
Best Regards

Your pictures are awful. You need clear, high res shots. These dials are all about the minute details. Having said that, from the little that I can see it doesn’t look good. It looks to be a dial from a notorious seller of fake parts based in Arizona.

Edit: Just had a better look at it, it’s fake no doubt about it.

Thanks. I will try to make some better pictures with my computer in few hours. Maybe you can have a second look then. The seller is based in spain. But of course he may have bought it once from Arizona.

No need, it’s fake unfortunately.

Thanks a lot. I will cancel the buy.
Always very helpful here.

May I just ask what is weird with the minute subdial? If you were referring to that at all.
Is the Singer engraving ok for you? Doesn’t the G look weird as well?
Best Regards

Oh, now I have seen the the length of the ticks in the minute subdial are weird. At least relative to each other.
Thanks again.
