6426 Dial Question

Hello All

I'll make this short and sweet.

I purchased a 6426 a while back on ebay with the knowledge that it had service hands.

I asked if that was the only thing that was replaced by the authorized rolex repair place, and they said yes.

The more and more pics I see of the reference 6426, the more I think the word "precision" looks strange on my dial. Is it smaller than it should be? Is this a service dial?

I believe my watch is from the 80's vs the majority of ones I see from the 60s and 70s.

Just curious by someone more knowledgeable my myself.

Yes all good. It looks like the thin bezel version which wear very slightly bigger on the wrist. Serial number will dictate the year of manufacture of course. Found between the south lugs.
The bracelet looks like a 78350 and will have a date code on clasp too.
