This dial is commonly known as a "center split."
We have previously handled the Ref. 16570 black letter/center split.
This is the first time we have received the ivory/center split.
This is a comparison image with the 16550 Ivory/Center Split Dial (right) !!
I compared it closely with the 550 Ivory,
The only difference is the edge of the index and the frame of the hands.
The font was exactly the same.
Am I the only one who feels that the dial has a different texture from the 550 Ivory?
This is an attractive specimen with a glossy texture and creamy color!

The dial condition is good with some small scratches and scuffs.
Overall it is in good condition.
The luminous hands are all tritium.
There is a small chip on the second hand, but the condition is good.

There is no excessive finishing The lug legs are thick and in good condition!
The edge lines are also very sharp!!
There are scratches on the side of the case,
This is a model manufactured around 1991, so the atmosphere is still intact.
