Possible 1675 purchase

I have an opportunity to purchase a Rolex 1675. I am not an expert but here is what aI could find after some research. From the dial and hands the watch seems like a pre 1967 model. Black bezel was not used until early 70s so it seems non original for this watch. Also jubilee bezel was used later so it is not original for this watch. Can you please check the pics and let me know what is right and wrong about it and how much I should offer.

There's a few things which look wrong, you'll need a pic of the dial without the hands obscuring the text. Relumed dial at the very least and dodgy hands. If dial is correct then it's wrong for the case, which should have PCG guards. Good pics of case serial and model engravings needed.

Thanks for the reply. Caseback dates 66. I asked for the serial for the case.

Keep getting information on this watch..
Looks like it is made up of "parts".....
Check the reference numbers (serial and model) on the case. Get clear pictures of the dial with the writing unobstructed..

Bezel, dial that is relumed and case don't match. I will pass on this one.
