Unusual Tudor chrono dial
Has anyone seen a dial like this one? The watch, a 79160 Big Block, is for sale and I'm unsure about the dial even though the owner says it's authentic, calling it the "gray dial." The wording on the dial looks like something from a 793xx series, with "Chronautic" above the bottom subdial and "Geneve" (I think) under "Tudor." I'm guessing it's a 79160 with a 793xx dial. Any ideas on this one?

Well, it's difficult to tell from the pic...
but it looks like it is a 79160 or earlier BB, based on the bezel fonts. The dial certainly looks like a 793x0 Chronautic dial, which is much later.
here's a 79380 Mike Wood had for sale a while back: Where is it for sale? R
