1970 is getting fairly late for MF ...
There are 2.3 S/N cases (circa 1969) out there with MF dials considered all original.
1970 is getting kinda late for an MF dial but not necessarily incorrect I'd say

Although as stated above there is feet 1st with lower serial numbers I went through my records and found an original owner watch I had bought with letters and service papers through Rolex that I had a few years ago and it was a 2.5783XX m 1st.The only 1 I have had this late in the range.

I have a 68' M/F 5513 - serial number is 2.4 mil
I haven't heard of a 1970's M/F but there are heaps of others here who are more qualified to comment!! |

I have this meters first 3.5 million case serial 5513 that I bought about two years ago well before I had any clue about meters first/feet first dating (I just really liked the watch and 1972 is my birth year). Later, after reading previous posts like this, I decided I probably have an earlier dial on a younger watch, but who knows (I had a Rolex trained watchmaker check it out and it is all OEM, but this was before I saw posts about the dating). I just know I still really like the watch.
