1675 Check

Considering this this 72 1675. Any red flags pop out? Looks to be a solid mk2 dial, fat font, good case. Thanks in advance.

That does look to be a decent specimen for sure! ... the case beveled edges look barely touched?

as you said Mk2 dial and a fat font that would be consistent with 72

Very nice example, I like it a lot. I would guess that the case has been refinished, just as an FYI. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

What is that dot in the bezel insert at the "three dot?" What kind of chemical could cause that. Beautiful watch.

Can’t tell if it’s the light or not, the blue insert section has a gloss or sheen? How is it being represented by the seller?
