What GMT Dial is this?
I know this isn’t a 6542 dial.
But It has a chapter ring as Swiss at 6 O’clock. Nipple dial for a Rootbeer. Is this dial legit? What year would this dial have been made ? I am very confused as I have been trying to track down one that is similar.

Ordinarily a vintage dial marked SWISS would denote a service replacement, but the one you showed isn’t original OEM. It has had some refinishing or was made to replicate an early GMT nipple dial. So, no, it is not legit. I could say when it was “made” - where did you find it, or that image? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

What GMT Dial is this?
Quote:
The replica maker or refinisher misprinted the script (too low and too close to the central hole) and used poorly fabricated gold hour markers including the inverted triangle at 12. Original 16753 printed dial shows the differences.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Sucks, oh well. Thanks Paul .
I thought the font was off myself, but figured I would look into it and check with you all here. I will let my local dealer know it is wrong as it is being sold a legit.

The easiest way to tell is the hand stack of the dial. It's a quick set GMT (16753/16758) |

I believe the dial has been determined to either be a replica or restoration.
