1964-66. Last version of the gilt GMT dials.

To the OP: Typically when you see the SWISS - T<25 at the bottom of a gilt/gloss dial it places the time period of production around '64 to '66. Typically the gilt/gloss dials from '63 and earlier just have SWISS at the bottom.

Agree with Springer and Beaumont. 1966 was the transition year. You will see both gilt and matte in 66 and both big and little GMT hands from that year.
