I'm not sure, but I've seen a similar style on early Submariners.

I am actually quite fascinated by the variations in font styles across the different models over the years.

I look out for the long 'F' in ft on every watch I look at.

Sad, I know... lol

Here's the Sub I mentioned.

The "T" is what gets me on the SD with the bottom so rounded and almost touching the cross bar.

Yes, the T is possibly one of the most unusual fonts I've seen.

It's a shame it doesn't have the open 6's like on the Submariner ...

Tough call: either a 1680 or a 1016 or both

Outstanding set you have there.

Same for me as to preference. I love my Great White, but sometimes wish it had a more simplified dial.

Great collection as well!

The SD everyday!

The only watch a 1665 that I really miss after sailing it.

But the others aren't bad either:-)
