Response to Sorry, Orchi, but you of all people should know...

Err...this is MK.2 WG Gloss Dial for 16760...
with Orchi's 9,466,xxx series case...

Here's one from the VRF Dial Archive(1st Archive entry)...
with perhaps a late 8 million series case...
which looks to be similar to the one posted by Orchi in here...(9.466 case)
MK.2...

Your example could be MK. 3 from VRF Dial Archive...
from later 9.6 million series case...
which probably extend to the end of "R" series 19760 GMT II...?

Same Coronet style...but with faint Serif "SCOC" fonts...
n same same looks with this one from the VRF Dial Archive also...
posted by Buddy U5512...

TQ for the kind reminder...that there could be 3 WG Gloss Dial...
for 16760 GMT Master II...

However...it MAY BE possible that the "MK.3" Dial on later Case Series
of Ref 16760...could be the SAME as the ones found on EARLY WG Gloss Dial
of its later successor...the Ref 16710 GMT Master II...
with Tritium markers "SWISS-T<25" at 6 o'clock...too. <br>


Not as simple...but it could be more complicated...
as the Early Rolex WG Gloss Dial of those era...has strong
tendency to crack up or crazed...so MANY Dials on such watches
are turned in to RSC for later replacements...to fix the problems.

In doing so...those Ref 16760 that are turned into RSC by around 1988 or thereafter...
chances are...the Replacement Dials could be similar to the ones which
were available for the Ref 16710 Tritium Dials...instead.

Here are some examples of the Early WG Gloss Dial variant...
for the later successor REF 16710 GMT Master II...
with Tritium markers..."SWISS-T<25" at 6 o'clock. <br>

Is there any similarities to the possible MK.3 Dial of 16760...?

Hahahaaa...there maybe more complication ahead...

Best regards
Orchi.
