1675 Radial
Hi all,

Just picked up this 1977 1675 with an MK. 3 Radial dial. Would love any and all comments!

Unusual to see hooked 7 datewheel in that dial.

Hmmmm, could this be an early 70's date wheel?

I’d concentrate on the datewheel comments! Don’t make an expensive mistake. Looking at a vintage piece with later updates is understandable. Serviced over the years parts are changed. I’d wonder what else isn’t period correct and why, if older parts are in place. Have you seen engravings; model and serial?
Wait for Springer, he’s the man when it comes to GMT models.

It's date wheel is unusual because it is not correct. Not a big deal.
