Sea Dwellers dial

Hi Guys

Can anybody help me on the matte/glossy dial issue of 666 Sea Dwellers?
As I understand, Sea Dwellers in a short period of time could have either glossy or matte dial. One homepage says matte dial up to ca. 8,3 mil, some watches on Chrono24 have matte dial even from 1986 (which should have > 9 mill serial number). Some originally glossy dial SD are probably replaced with matte dials to pimp the price? Anyone knows more on this topic?

Best wishes from Kleno

Yes, you are pretty spot on everything from my understanding. There are also redials floating out there that end up in higher numbers with the original loose mattes being so expensive. Rocky road
