The 6350 carries two dial variants. The honeycomb appears across roughly half of documented examples (6 of 11 documented major-house lots) — not standard but more frequent than the 6610's red-depth gilt. The waffle and honeycomb labels collectors sometimes use describe the same pressed cross-hatch texture under two names. The article does not split them. | The 6350 carries two dial variants.

Black lacquered dial with gilt printing, a chapter ring at the perimeter, "Explorer" text, and the OCC line. All text is gilt. Antiquorum HK June 2024 lot 369-111 (case 955,472, HKD 150,000) is the cleanest standard configuration in the recent record. The standard configuration runs throughout the 1953–55 production window; survival rate is higher than for the honeycomb but the dial is still rare in original condition. | Black lacquered dial with gilt printing, a chapter ring at the perimeter, "Explorer" text, and the OCC line.
