GMT 1675 Insert Help

Hi Guys and Ladies,

Looking for some help as to wether or not 2 of my inserts are legit.
The middle one in the photo is not in question. The two on either end are the ones in question. I realize these sit somewhat lower than the middle insert and the rim isn’t as strong but is present. I have provided photos. Any input is greatly appreciated. I will be cleaning out some of my inserts soon and don’t want to pass of anything as something it may not be. I am sure they are legit just double checking.

Thank you in Advance.
Please see photos provided.

I know you have that lovely 1675/8 so I will comment based on a 1675. They all look like original Rolex parts. However, #1 looks artificially aged and a service insert, #2 looks period correct and just a little faded, #3 looks like a new service insert but is for later models like the 16753 but still for an acrylic crystal. I purchased a new one from Rolex in 2020 looks just like that last one. Just my .02¢…
