Compare the two pictures, one is a no date sub 5513, one is a white 1680.

Hey pal, this one is a 1680 from 1978 as Bas mentioned. I had the 5513 from '72 yesterday. Both submariners - one with date, other without. Also one older, other younger

Thank you! Monaco really is a unique and fun piece. Easy to forget to wear it though with a yacht master or hulk in your collection! Glad to hear you're giving yours more wrist time too. Don't let your wife wear the hulk too long!!! It may become hers LOL. Wishing you and all other TRF's a good and healthy weekend!
