16800 handwritten papers

Can a 7.3mm serial 16800 from bucherer have the following papers? I know Bucherer used handwritten papers well into the 80s....but the cert should have been phased out in the late 70s.....right?

I would not consider the box correct. The warranty paper was not in use during the time period for the captioned watch.

The correct inner box for the 16800 should have serial 67.00.03
The outer should be moon crater box.
