Your thoughts on this 5513
Hey folks. I'm new to vintage watches, but have been thinking of securing a birth year watch. The dial and case look good to me, but have not seen that dimpling in the lume before. What are your thoughts?
Appreciate any feedback. |

That is a lovely lovely piece! I don't see any issues with the lume.

Thanks guys. This is my first vintage watch so looking for originality. The lume threw me off as I had never seen the "waffle" finish. Looks almost like the marks you might leave when wearing gloves with grip. Anyone seen this before?

not sure on the lume but the dial is correct. if it were meters first then the swiss as the bottom would be 5 bar not the three.

Would you all consider this a serif or a non-serif dial? Listed as serif, but the E is not right. Correct for the year I believe (late 72).
How would serif vs. non-serif affect the price? |

I've seen this effect on many dials of this period. Perfectly normal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
