A dot like that means that the dial of my 5508 actually is an ”Exclamation Mark” dial. Which in the frenzied Rolex collectors environment means way more aaahh'ing and uuhhh'ing than if my 5508 was without this little dot.
Not quite sure HOW much this dot means in terms of monetary value, but undoubtedly my horological pension plan now offers a few extra days in the sun on that deserted island where I will write my ticking memoirs one day.
