I'm no expert but it looks like either it's from a 6542 or a 1675, mid 50's to mid 60's. Or this is just a bump for the more informed members to help.

Dial looks refinished, but would be to a early 1675 PCG.

It's for a 1675 ......

.... 6542 dials have no feet - but I'm not loving it.

Odd text and odd text alignment compared to other early SWISS only 1675 dials I've seen.

I could be mistaken but it even looks a bit 'yuki' to me.
That's 'yuki' not 'yucky' but it kinda means the same thing

Here's a nice example of an early SWISS 1675 dial from VRF resources

Agreed, refinished 1675 pcg. As stated, text is iffy (L central under coronet), no dash between oyster and perpetual. Crown also wrong.
