Thoughts on this 16520 white dial
Hi,
I've been offered this complete set 16520. It's a T serial (so potentially from 96) and while polished, is otherwise, in my view, in rather respectable condition (except for the slightly overpolished crown guards). The price is compelling but I have slight doubts about the period correctness of the dial. From all other variations I've seen from this era (i.e. T serial no and 1996), the dial should be a Mark 5 where the 5 lines of text are lower but this seems to feature the slightly later Mark 6 Tritium dials where the 5 lines of text are higher. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated, along with any other aspects of the watch that might stand out.

It would help if you placed photos of what you consider to be the correct dial and what range of serial numbers would be correct for this dial - and then indicate the serial number for your watch.

Dial and case (sans-CG's) are impeccable on this example. CG's and bezel are over-polished for my taste... The dial is likely correct and original based on the overall condition of the piece.
