Correct box for a 1980, 16750 for the European market

I would like to know what the correct box would be for 16750 from 1980. I’ve done some research and seen that box reference 67.00.08 was used from 1984, but what was used prior to this from when they were first released in 1979?

I know that the US used the bufkor box but can’t seem to find out what was used for the European market. Can anyone help?

I’ve seen that post. It can’t be a 67.00.08 as that’s from 1984

A 67.00.03 is for a submariner.

A 67.00.3 is for a 1675 from 1970

So would the 11.00.2 be more appropriate??

The moonscape crater box with the slotted card that JustinK posted in the thread below is correct.

Is that a 11.00.2 ?

Are you 100% the outside cardboard box is for that 11.00.2?

May I ask what year your Gmt is from?

No not positive but yes it reads 11.00.2. Not sure the year but likely 79-85.

I’d go with whatever John/Springer says without a doubt.
