ebay: ref 16750 with GMT IIc dial?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-GMT-16...item2a29d69d30

Seller claims to have a GMT ref 16750 that sat around a jewelers shop for 30 some odd years. It appears to have a IIc dial and a newer SEL bracelet. Is it even possible to fit the newer dial to the calibre 3075 movement?

“This Watch has been in a safe for 32 Years it is like new !!”
the previous owner must have been Marty McFly to get that dial and then put it in safe for 32 years.

almost lost for words!!!

Very interesting!

The seller claims the "case" is new as well, wonder about the movement?
