GMT meteorite confusion - Is it vintage?

I’m trying to look into a gmt with meteorite dial that is available to me. The seller doesn’t know tons about it. It’s in a vintage box and may have an aluminum dial.

Was the meteorite dial ever offered prior to the 2013 release?

Huh? The 126719BLRO meteorite was released at Baselworld 2019. This was the first time a meteorite dial was used for any GMT reference.

Sorry. I was wrong about 2013. I thought that’s when the current version was released.

Thanks for the info

The only thing that's vintage is the meteorite.

That's all you needed to hear... no need for any other questions. It’s 110% a replica
