16710 Bezels

Need a little help with these. Purchased
over 15 years ago for a swap in a 16700
and 16710 but didn’t like the faded
red portion so put them away. I’m thinking about selling them but I have
no idea if they are even authentic.
I can’t tell them apart from my factory
originals is all i have to go on so far.
thanks in advance for any input

There are better GMT insert experts on here than me, but I'd say it looks good, from mid-late '90s, with the slightly fatter font and the serif style. I've had a couple that look just like that, including this one (minus the fade):

Inserts are genuine.
