In reviewing this thread, the dial identified by Orchi as the Mark V contains the same dial coronet as the luminova replacement "Swiss" marked dial. It is my opinion that the Mark III dial and the radial dial were followed by the Mark X or elongated dial. I do not see where the Mark V dial fits in the time frame for circa 1970's GMT dials.
My opinion is based on owning and examining many GMT's in the past along with the Mark V dial having the same Rolex coronet as the replacement luminova "Swiss" marked dial. I believe that the Mark V dial is a replacement service dial along with the luminova "swiss" dial which are printed with the same coronet.
Any other opinions are welcome. I'd like to hear from you. Below are pics of the Mark V and the Swiss luminova dials.
