Real Chronometer Certification?

This is presented as original for a 195xxxx serial number Datejust, but I've not seen this version of certification papers before.

Is anyone familiar with this version?

Opinions?

That design was used around 1970 so it seems to be appropriate for a 1.95 million serial number watch.

This is a useful site for looking at the different designs of guarantee papers:

The clue to date circa first used... is 'usually' in the bottom corner eg 1971 on certs and translations and booklets ....
Tons of fake blank ones of these though, as no watermark on the early ones.
