Case back of my soon to be GMT 1675

a week ago many commented (positively) on a potential GMT 1675. Seller took watch to have It opened and sent photos. The mechanism shot is phone shot blurred but looks fine, the case back looked odd to me til I found the exact type on hqmilton for a watch of similar year. I've attached it just because I'm so excited to be finally getting a watch. Wrist shots to follow when I have it (I won't bother to repost the other watch shots as everyone liked the watch so no worries there for now)

Again thanks to TRF for everything especially the love for Rolexes that proves infectious!

So long as the watch is a 1973 or newer, the case back would be correct. If its a watch older than 1973 then its been replaced.
