Just out of curiosity how you know this watch is COMEX?
It has a helium escape valve, the case back is marked correctly with COMEX designation, it has a COMEX issue number (showing it to be from the very first 50 watches) and this corresponds as it should with the Rolex case number, which is within a well-documented batch.

The dial is correct for this variant and has some distinctive, albeit easily overlooked features.
