1967 1016 from Exotic Watches:

Input appreciated. To my (untrained) eye the dial appears period correct (it at least matches other '67s that I've managed to locate), but I'm slightly worried about the lume - particularly on the 6.

Seller seems relatively trustworthy, although a forum search throws up this slightly alarming result:

Thanks.

Yeah seems strange that the rotor is positioned just so as to obscure it. Have requested more photos, although seller is insisting no relume has taken place.
