I can't make out the long E and I am not sure I understand the reference to the V on the crown. 1963 may be late for a PCG but their profile is somewhat different. Here is a very poor photo of a PCG 5512 (554xxx) with similar rear profile.
It obviously has an very late dial and later bracelet but I can't condemn it as a fake from the photos supplied in 'theBay' listing. [not fake - though also redialed]

I have seen PCG fakes recently but do not think based on those pics this is 1 of them.You have better eyes than me as I cannot make out any EEE'S on those pics but think the watch is ok. Replacement dial, bracelet etc

Err buddy David...apart from the watch having a later replacement Dial...
replacement Rotor blade on Cal.1530(instead of "Butterfly" blade)... n a modern set of heavy Oyster bracelet... Orchi finds the case(5513 Pointy Crown Guards) to be OK... There is NO sign of Long Middle stroke of "E"... Do remember the [] prerequisite does NOT apply to 5512/5513 with PCG... only to those 5512/5513/1680 Sub cases with ROUNDED crown guards... |

OK that is it I am going to go and hide for awhile. I am screwing up to much on the WatchOut section.

You're doing OK David , we all screw up , even the real experts .... except Orchi .. can we ever fault him ? Who is Orchi ? I suspect him to be the retired ( early ) official dial maker for Rolex Thanks Orchi for all the valuable input you provide |
