5513 and BC Lions Grey Cup Championship Ring

Firstly that is NOT my ring! Wish it was! It is the 2012 BC Lions Grey Cup championship ring that was given out to the BC Lions Staff. My neighbor was gracious enough to let me try his on. The players rings are even bigger!

The watch is the 1967 1.7 million s/n 5513 meters first.

Yours or the neighbors, it's a rare sight in personal pics......

The 5513 is a beaut.
Wonderful patina, and solid case. Thanks for posting and enjoy the Canada day celebrations

Be back in Vancouver next week, looking forward to a beautiful summer!

I hope not, but it could also be because the T39 crystal is magnifying it. Btw, still have to learn decent photography, as the indexes are more patina'd than that in the metal. Plus I'm a very dark skinned guy and I look whiter there than usual lol
