Hello hope everyone is doing well.

I just got a beautiful triple six matte which I love.
But I like better the look of the Acrylic Crystal from the 1680 model.
Does anyone know if by any chance the triple 6 transition model (Mattte dial) was ever made with a synthetic acrylic Dome or always with a sapphire cristal one ?
I would like to replace the dome for a synthetic one which to me give a more vintage look to the watch but I want to stay coherent with the production date and material use at the time.

Thank you all for your knowledge on the subject and advises.

The 1665 and 16660 were made concurrently with the newer 16660 coming with Sapphire only.
