Buy The Watch Take Off The Dial / Bezel Insert ? Or Source Someplace else


I have a GMT 1675-8 that needs a replacement dial and bezel insert.
Knowing it's nearly 30 years ago, If I send RSC, I bet RSC will replace with new GMT dial.
I found a watch store that sells exactly same gmt 1675-8 with bronze dial, picture attached.
It cost $3100
I think this is the only way I can get exact same dial and bezel insert, since I have been searching for about a year and only find aftermarket dial/insert
Shall I buy the watch and take off the dial and bezel insert and then try to reclaim some money by selling the back the watch on ebay (my old dial/bezel fit into it first) ?
Or better I wait few more years and someone somewhere bound to have exact same old 1675 bronze dial and bezel insert?

Answer:
referring to the current model dial, it will not fit the movement of your watch. The positioning of the "feet" will be different. I would suggest you contact the Rolex Service Center in S'pore and ask them exactly what dial they would use.
