Not sure about dial version. Dial and hands match nicely, case looks strong (cant see the chamfers), insert is very nice - looks like you found a very nice example

Very nice patina! Insert looks to have been replaced but that's not a big deal. Dial looks the same as my 7.4 mil. Great watch enjoy it.

It is a regular, matte 16750 dial and not a service replacement. The 16750 dials are so close that I've never paid much attention to the differences. One has a little narrower crown that the other which seems to be the main difference if I remember correctly. The service dials had the gold surround makers.

That is a beautiful GMT, CONGRATS!

Buddy Orchi did a post on 16750 dials in the past. This should give you an idea from his research, which from it you could say yours is a Mk-2.

that's a nice example and the hands don't suffer from oxidation.

post some more pics of the case etc.

+1 - I can't tell with the font parameters, but the bottom of the coronet does look right for a MK2. Beautiful!
