16750 glossy dial no date.

Hello Gents,
I learned that in the transition years it's very difficult to be coherent, but I also know that the personal archives of many here on the forum can help a lot.
Having said that, I'd like to know if this glossy dial - which I think is the second and last "no date" - is correct on the 8.2 serial.
Specifically, in this photo taken by a well-known and valued seller, it is mounted on an 8.2.
Thanks for the opinions.
Greetings.

All dials with WG markers came glossy from factory. However over time, in a few examples, they can turn slightly matte finish and not be as shinny as newer glossy dials

That looks like an HQ Milton photo. I have an 84 8.2M serial as well, the dial has spidered however. These are hard to find without the word "date" and without crazing occurring on the gloss dials

Your "no date" dial is fine for the serial number.

Thank's a lot. And what about this dial? Do you think is refurbished? This gloss seems to me a little strange...
Thanks.
