yachtmaster question

did the yachtmaster always have the word "Yacht-master" in red font? or did it come in standard non bold black?

having difficultly sourcing photos of the older yacht-masters

reason being, someone local is trying to sell their yachtmaster mother of pearl and i noticed that it had black font. i havent looked at the MOP and was more used to seeing the regular one

I am not familiar with Yachtmasters but be careful, some times the MOP and other unique upgraded dials are aftermarket.

not conclusive but i have seen MOP , white, blue , platinum dials on yacht-masters and its always been in red. doesnt make it certain at all but i would be wary and look more into it.
