GMT 1675 /6542 mini / small 24hrs hand

Any idea about the 1675 / 6542 GMT 24 hrs mini / small hands? they have two variants of arrow head. One is a sharp triangle head that is more common. Another is a flat triangle head.

No such thing as a "flat" triangle head.

This one was snipped at the end..

As TTG noted, the flat tip ones have been clipped - they never came that way when new.

There are 2 different size small arrow hands from center whole to tip. The 6542 one is longer the clipped ones you see are the longer ones cut short
