Thanks Paulie. I did a little investigation, and everything you mentioned is consistent with the information that I found. Nice watch!
Seller is overseas, asking 3K but willing to do 2650 USD. The dial is untouched and sealed in packaging, would be great to have to swap out on my G serial 116520 some day. As rare as it is, I still don't think I can bring myself to throw down that type of scratch on just a dial
