ExpII Dial Question: "swiss made" or "swiss"

[charle]

My brother recently bought a EXP II "Y" 2003 series from a second hand watch dealer at Golden Landmark Hotel. I notice that at the bottom of the dial is written "swiss" instead of the normal "swiss made" . Is that a original dial?
The watch came with box and papers.

My brother requested for a change of dial(black) from a older EXP II to a newer EXP II which original dial colour is (white).

"Swiss" dial is made only from year 1999 to 2000. Y series should be "swiss made".

So i believe this dealer swopped a older dial for the Exp II... : (

If the dial glows very brightly.there's a chance its a genuine replacement dial.Nothing to worry.

can still be original, only it was switched by RSC (or anyone with access to genuine dials)
