Beautiful example. The 5512 is a true collectors piece. It's on my radar.

Just a quick question, what are the exact differences between the 5512 and 5513 Subs?

I know the 5513 was produced afterwards and had a longer production run than the rarer 5512 but, is the difference just in the movement?

By the way, the 5512 is a classic, legendary watch!!

The 5513 used either the Cal. 1520 and the Cal. 1530, depending on series.

The 5512 used the Cal. 1530 only.
