RED 1680- Good or bad? Feedback wanted

3.3 million serial, IV.72.

Should it be open 6s? Does it look correct?





Appreciate the valuable feedback

I have a IV 72 GMT and it has open sixes and nines. Not a Sub expert but it looks ok, probably need some better pics, and the experts to chime in.

can you show pics of the sides? looks like a fat case....replaced insert. i assume the datewheel is a silver open 6/9's too?
This is not a mark 4 dial. Perhaps a mark 5, which i think is ok for that range.

This is not a Mark IV dial, looks like Mark VI, which should be from 3.X to 4.0M serial.

Start your education here (a permanent post here):

You can also check the dial archive over at VRF to get a feel for what dials are accepted in what serial ranges.
