Correct, they are 100% interchangeable.

True. Though sourcing an original LV dial, bezel insert, and hands would likely be quite costly, and take a while to track down.
That said, it's interesting that the watch still has some of the factory stickers intact and appears to come with boxes/tags...but no papers. If the green hang tag pictured indicates "16610LV" with the matching SN, then that's a point of reasruance. Still, given the current value of these early LV Subs, I'd probably want to confirm (via RSC) that the watch did in fact start life as an LV, absent the original papers. YMMV.
