Bonjour Francois! Thanks for your kind comments.
Yes, I also belong to that era, having got my first 5513 Sub in 1966, when I was 18 years old. These watches were fantastic tools in those days, and keep being great timepieces today. I canīt think about ever being without one of them on my wrist anyday!
Best cordial regards, Abel.
