1675 (mark 2?) check

I have a line on this watch to see this week. Not sure serial range but can update later.
Comes w a Jubilee bracelet that supposedly original to the watch but that’s it. Seller is asking 16k.
No movement shots but will update after my drive to visit this week.

Try the reference library here on TRF. There are some threads there identifying GMT 1675 dials.

Also, photos identifying the various GMT dials can be found on gmtmaster1675.com and in the reference library at gmtforum.com.

IMHO the plots suggest moisture so a look at the movement is key but yeah MK2. I can't tell if the dial is damaged or not from these pics. Lets also see pics of the bracelet too. Could be good but movement & bracelet will have to be great and dial not damaged at that price.

Thanks Springer and Tom! I have done some research on those excellent sites and feel confidant it is a mark 2.
The price is steep and case is soft-ish. I think it is an honest watch, I just do not know if this 'the one' at that price as I would feel better if this watch was closer to 12-13k, but they are do not come up often...
I will take a look at later this week and obtain bracelet and movement photos.

Lume plots looks terrible I would steer away from this unless the price is much lower.

Gotta agree. The markers look absolutely terrible.

There’s a not-so-fine-line between “patina” and “filthy”

I appreciate the replies. I plan to take the look at in the metal, but price could just make it a deal breaker.
Lume plots are bugging me more now.
Again, always appreciate the insights gentlemen!
