Gmt master 1675 pcg non chapter ring dial

Hi All

I am asking for your opinions on this 1961 GMT Master 1675 PCG with NON Chapter Ring GILT Dial.

For Reference the Watch Has Original Chronometer Paperwork Dated NOVEMBER 1961

I have read previous threads on TRF in regards to the NON Chapter Ring Gilt Dial is too late for this PCG Case.

The serial on this watch is 665,XXX

This watch also looks like it has the extended 2.3MM Mini 24 Hour Hand As is sits on the dial where the Chapter Ring would usually be??

Is it possible the watch was produced with the Chapter Ring Hand Set but a NON Chapter Ring GILT Dial??

I have read some information on the GMTMASTER1675.COM website which in my opinions states that there were early PCG Cases with the NON Chapter Ring Dial In, You may tell me different!

LINK TO GMT Master 1675.com

https://gmtmaster1675.com/non-chapter-ring/

THIS IS THE TEXT ON THE WEB PAGE THAT MAKES ME WONDER

"The move away from chapter rings began and 1963 and while collectors continue looking back to them, Rolex hasn’t. The general layout of these dials, with minute hashes that extend to the edge of the dial, were maintained until the far past the end of the 1675 model line. These gilt non-chapter ring models, which span from 1963-1967, also incorporate the crown guard evolution that occurred in 1964. The Type A and B dials are exclusively of the older PCG / “Cornino” variety and the Type C dials are in the later rounded crown guard cases (though early Type C’s are seen in PCG cases)."


They are not the best Images so apologies.

Can we finally put this to bed as It is driving me nuts!

Many Thanks
