Can some help on this 1675?
This is a 5.3M 1675.
Wondering if the dial is original? Is this a gilt dial? I guess not? Thank you for your help. |

Agree, looks good in baggie :-) But can't tell about lume or if hands replaced. 5.3 is way to new for gilt, 1.5 is about the end of the no chapter ring gilt dials. m

Welcome to the forum!
It is not a gilt dial. It would not be proper on a 5.3 mil year production. Looks like a Mk-5 dial but would prefer to see a better picture with all the writing exposed (and not in the baggie). Looks like a very nice watch! |

What are those brush or swirl marks in the red part of the bezel insert--has it been treated in some way to look faded...

You have a Mark V dial.

Mark V Dial
Is it a desirable dial? Or just a common dial?

Is it normal that insert is polished?

it is OK, but I prefer a gilt dial and I think the red bezel was treated somehow.
cheers,
