Would you know approximately from which period this dial is from?
I recently bought a circa 1969 Datejust that has the same dial, and I'm pretty sure it's a service dial; I would just like to know how old it is.. I'm pretty confident it is definitely not from the sixties or the seventies.

EDIT: after further analysis the dial is not exactly the same but very similar...

When it rains, it pours!
Here is a new (to me) Maxi MK 1. Came on a service insert, and now made perfect with this one IMO.
Have been looking for a MK 1 for such a long time, and surely enough it shows up once I have stopped searching..
Happy to add this one to my collection.
