Which bezel is original for this 16610?

Early 90s 16610
I’ve seen pictures with two different tritium pip bezels. The only difference I really spot is the little serif on the underside of the top of the number 5. Which one would it have come with? Trying to restore one that had a service bezel. Thanks

Quite sure about the first one « pac man » 5.
2nd one is also early 90s but later IMO

What is the serial of your watch ?

It’s an x serial. So 1991 maybe. I’ve see stock photos that year with both bezel designs so I don’t know
