Dial obsessions.... waffle dial

[Ukboweldoc]

I’m seriously sickening for things.....

My other current fettish is the waffle dial on vintage Watches...

In particular Rolex seemed quite keen on these in the 60’s from what I can see (as above).


So what’s your favourite dial type ?

Waffle and hobnail both great.

But to find one in a nice vintage condition is hard..

Would almost call this the Rolex redial period..

I wondered if redialling Watches was quite common of this period ?

I love the look of this... but wonder if the dial is non-original ?

I've seen quite a lot of Sanderson & Sons' stock and they have some beautiful watches.

To my eyes, they're over-restored, but that's a matter of taste, of course

Restored dials are restored for a reason, usually because the dial needs it.

I hate the term ‘ redial’, it’s ambiguous and misleading.

Sandersons are OK to deal with, prices are sometimes a bit on the heavy side but their watches are generally very good.
