Help with 5513 on service parts

Hi, I would like to seek some advice on how to tell whether the parts are service parts. Mine is a 3 million series. I think the dial, hands, bazel and crown were replaced but can’t be sure. Thanks for any advice.

I can’t see much of the crown but I suspect you are correct about the rest.

Not my area of expertise - but are the WG Gloss 5513 dial experts here happy with that '660 ft' with the spacing and font, and cursive (wispy top like a 7928 Tudor) of the f ?

Dial is good and original Rolex, but not matching the 3.X million watch generation
crown has been changed and this is not matching the watch generation
crystal is aftermarket...

Everything is service, except the dial, which has been replaced but is actually a late 5513 dial, not a tritium service dial (note the open 6’s).

This is not the shape of a T19, so it could be a service dome, but service dome is not seating like this on the watch when properly installed...

below the service dome on 5513..

@OP, you can compare with yours irl. like i wrote before, when i see your pictures, i have the feeling that none of them looks like yours.
@Filipao, in my opinion D19 and T19 have the same profile or at least similar enough that makes them very close from the side like shown in your photo...
