Saw this gorgeous GMT Posted for sale and thought to share it with the forum members. Besides the stunningly beautiful patina & price, the dial is missclassified by the seller as an MK4. I would classify it more of a very late 70's MK5/6.

Agreed. The seller should know better.
With a 3.2 mil case, I would want to see a Mk-2 or 3, 4 would be OK. Mk-3 was a short production dial..

An MK3 would be a great fit for this watch. I hear they are highly sought after specially with a red hand and blueberry insert combo.

WOW! Now that is truly a stunning GMT. This is as good as it gets for me, a radial.

Thanks for sharing.

Would you guys mind explaining the difference of a MK4 dial and a very late 70's MK5/6?

Curious to know! Killer piece, sharp case, perfecting aging to bezel, patina compliments the piece!

Best,

Thomas

It motivated me to read up on them, so the last few hours of my time have been sifting through information on Tropical dials 😁

Hope you are having a Happy Holiday!
