Is this a good 1675 GMT service dial?

HI everyone I just traded/purchased a new (to me) 1970 GMT 1675.



I love the watch but got it fully intending to replace the dial and hands. Before I'm run out of town don't worry I am saving them I just don't like the way they look and would rather enjoy my watch while I wear it. That way it's best of both worlds, I can enjoy it better and then return it to original if I ever sell it.

So I picked up a Luminova service dial and hands off eBay

It came today and it looks right to me, but I just wanted to see what everyone else thinks.





Thanks in advance everyone!

Looks like a nice service dial. I prefer Tritium but it would be nice to be able to keep time in the dark lol

I have to agree I much prefer a nice patina'd tritium, but I got the dial and hands for about 1/2 what I've seen people asking other places so I couldn't pass it up. It gives me something nice to use and then I can take my time and look for a good tritium dial and hand set.

That is one big service dial - I hope it fits inside the watch!
