If it's an '87, shouldn't the 6 o'clock position on the dial reference tritium, as opposed to "SWISS MADE", as this one apparently does?

{EDIT} - Never mind, others have made this point already - reading is fundamental.

Does it have lug holes on the case?
Excelent point re: the warranty card. Now that you mention it, it looks like the entire signature could have been re-written to disguise the date change.
