Rolex GMT 1675 Matte Dial

Good day everyone. I bought a GMT 1675 and it was not disclosed that the dial had a couple of "touch-ups", ie...could not see on the photos. Discussed with seller and he states that they were not there when the watch was shipped!!??

Well, the "touch-ups" really bother me SO...

I would like to get a replacement dial. What is the best way to go about this
AND there is a Matte Dial on ebay. How would I be able to tell if this dial is
ORIGINAL?, ie...the only think I see on the back of the dial is 121 12699.

Any thoughts/help would be appreciated. thanks, Tom

Check VRM for vintage dials: http://www.network54.com/Forum/207673/

If you have Qs on a particular dial, post it here and on their forum and you should get some informed replies.

What year GMT 1675 do you have? There are dial variations for this watch.
