Is that a period correct dial ie lume filled markers?
No, I believe it is a 116XXX dial but a very early one with the sticks and lume dots. I'm sanding off the rehaut to give it the feel of a 2005 DJ so I don't think the early dial would look ridiculous, but TBH I'm not even sure I'm going to use it yet, the rep dial is really close.

If I want to add a gen dial, can I use any dial with 3135 dial feet and 28mm width? I don’t care about being period correct and wonder whether those older 5 digit dials would save me some bucks and/or give me more options.

Yes you can use 5 digit dials, the biggest difference will be the lume which is tritium for most (only few between 1998 and 2000 have luminova) and thus the dials will have a "t swiss made t" print.

Also designs are a little different, 5 digits have whitegold sticks instead of lume sticks for example

They will fit perfectly but Datejust Dials are 27mm in Diameter.

Daydate dials are 28.5mm

So far I know you can use the 5 digit DJ dials as well.

Much obliged, gentlemen.
