Here we go again: Red Sub 1680 advice please...

I saw this watch in a brick and mortar shop. The S/N is 3,7XXXX.











What is disturbing me is that:
- the seller specify a "year of production in 1972" but he MK4 dial (closed 6) and the S/N should dated it from 1974.
- the papers seems not to mention the S/N, just the reference "1680/A". Could this be possible?

Thanks a lot in advance for your advices

To start with, it is a redial.
