The "America's Cup" had a painted dial and was a LE but it did not sell very well. On the other hand, the "non-AC" was not an LE but had applied dial markers and sold out quickly.
NOS "AC" models still show up from time to time but the "non-ACs" are very difficult to come by.
I began my 2254.50 customization with the applied marker dial and then added the WG bezel. The final touch was a display back from Thomas Preik.

Very Nice,
I never noticed the dial so I am going back to have another look at your watch.
Cheers
