Help on 1675 case back

Would like to seek your advice on the 1675 3mil S/N case back?
Look strange to me that the 1675 wording is not aligned. Thanks

The number is also out of line with the text on highly-trusted seller Jacek's 5513:

Can't vouch for the authenticity of yours, but the misalignment isn't necessarily an issue.

I have seen case back stamps that are not perfectly aligned. As far as your case back goes, it's hard to judge it from the photo. Here is one of mine from 1971. Maybe you can check the fonts etc and see how it compares to the case back in your photo.

Thanks for comments. I think the fonts are matched and hope it is authentic.

Have a nice weekend

Never seen one stamped that far out of location. Many with wobbly numbers as shown.
I'd want to inspect all the numbers on the case closely.
