"Swiss" Only Dials
Dear forum members,
I have always read that "Swiss" only dials were produced between the years 1998 and 1999. I have noticed a few watches online from very reputable sources claiming to be from 1997 or 2000 with this type of dial. Does anyone know if could be possible? Thank you in advance for your collaboration :) |

Year definition is somewhat spurious..... I think like pinning a tail on a donkey!
Broadly A and U serial, and service dials of course.

"Swiss" only dials were the first generation of Luminova dials and there is always carry over, Rolex never started and stopped anything by calendar year or by serial number.

Don't forget the "tritinova" dials. :-)
