Will a 16700 dial fit into a 16750 watch??

Hi!

I have a very nice full set 16750, but during Rolex service they change the dial to a service dial "Swiss". The dial before service was with the text Oyster Perpetual Date, and circular edger around the index.
"Swiss T<25"

I wanna find a replacement Dial and restor it as it was but have a hard time to find a good one. I found one that looks exactly the same with matching hands but its for a 16700 model from 1988. Will this dial fit my 16750 watch? My 16750 is from 1987.

Thanks for help

You might want Springer to chime in but I believe it will fit both movements.

Will an acryllic crystal from a 16750 fit a 16700?
