thanks my friend, im a happy bunny even though its not a gilt dial. i sort of agree with Salman that it looks better with the white text. im puzzled by the bezel. ive unclipped it and oiled underneath despite it being spotless, but i still cant turn it...
maybe i will. i cant...

maybe i will. i cant think of many other brands still to get. i have also seen a beautiful tropicalised 5513 from 64 which looks stunning with patina to die for. i could live with 2 of them i have my eyes on a grand seiko chronometer. they are not easy to...

thanks Tim, the advantage with Rolex is that there is no need to redo a dial, they just replace them whether you like it or not im very pleased with it despite the fact that i cant turn the bezel even after taking it off and oiling it. looking at the dia...

You are on a roll with so many new pieces. My '66 5513 's non gilt dial looks very similar to yours except mine has a slight greenish tinge to the tritium whereas yours is vanilla. Did you have the rivet bracelet sized for you ? Is it a swiss made 7206 br...

thanks Dreamer, im enjoying it, but its only 18 hours of ownership. the bracelet is a steelinox USA model and it was this size on the watch. he forgot to send 2 spare links which are now en route. i could do with 1 extra just to account for hot weather w...
