They are such nice watches and there is such variety in such a short production span-white dials, black dials, honeycomb/waffle dials…Don’t think I’ve ever seen two that look the same!

Again no expert, but the fact that the crown is a twin lock suggests it’s been serviced (as do all the caseback markings), and I thought Rolex replaced radium dials as often as they could when performing a standard service, so you would expect the -T<25 dial unless it’s always been serviced independently using correct parts.

The bracelet is period correct give or take a few years, but it may not be the original judging by the end link wear marks on the lug that doesn’t marry with the one on there.

Again, not an expert, just a fan. I would rely on the others on this thread more than my ramblings!

Oh, and mine has the 18 on both the caseback interior and the midcase on a lug:
