Elliot22 1 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hi all, Looking to purchase my friends 18038 Day Date but have never seen these hour markers on a daydate dial before. I tried searching and came up with nothing. Possible Factory option over roman numberals/stick markers? Any insight would be helpful. Thanks WUS! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wheelorg 2 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Never seen before. One thing I can think of is that it was originally a diamond dial and that they have been removed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alex 1 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Thanks Mark020 I still have not come up with anything either Quote Link to post Share on other sites
watchjanek 0 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 The only thing that makes sense is that is started off as a diamond dial, and the diamonds were removed. You can get an idea of what it should look like there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Conier 1 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 For a year now I've been checking 18038's on eBay and I also looked at many after market dials for the day/date and have never run across one like your example. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hoo 5 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 It was originally intended to have diamonds but they ran out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
