A rare Rolex 1503 service dial with superluminova?

Hello everyone, first post here.

I recently obtained a 1503 gilt rolex dial, but I am confused with its authenticity:
1. Dial printing and fonts look genuine and not refinished
2. Although the dial states "T Swiss Made T", the dial:s lume dots glows after shining a bright light source at it (indicating that the lume dots are superluminova). To my knowledge, Rolex may have lumed the dial that way as they don't waste parts. Also, the lume dots do not look like they were relumed
3. Although the 1500 rolex model is from the 60s and 70s, the dial appears to be a service dial as rolex dials from that era does not have "T Swiss Made T" printed at the bottom.
4. The dial feet location verifies that the dial is made for a 1570 movement. The dial feet do not appear to be modified before from another position

Bearing with these points, I would like to know if the dial I bought is authentic? I am inclined to believe that the dial is a genuine 1500 series service dial with factory superluminova lume on a "T Swiss Made T" dial.

Thank you for your help!
