The Grey on Grey

Wow! The pockmarked dial ... the faded bezel ... the bloody date and the leather nato that looked like it came off the back of a 100 yr old elephant that lived all its life in the scorching African plains...

x 100!

Not strictly a Rolex or vintage but if you are a fan of vintage rolex, this will be interesting!

Hi Ender,

Lol indeed the surface of the submariner dial does look like a piece of elephant's hide. It seems to be a common problem when the dial has been exposed to moisture....Seen a few Snowflakes with the same damage.

Hi Ender,

Finally, Tudor sells a Black Bay with a black bezel on black dial just like Tudor submariners of old. I acquired the initial model with a red bezel a few years ago. I always preferred the Tudor rose rather than the shield and the Black Bay oozes vintage style. The gilt print, chapter ring, the gilt snow flake hands and beautiful unguarded crown incorporated into a modern beefy midcase.

particularly common for vintage tudors, especially the SF and 7928/7016, likewise the lumes too.
