My first vintage rolex incoming (or any rolex for that matter)

I caught the vintage bug and have been on the hunt for a birth year sub. I have have been lurking the forums and wanted to say thanks to everyone for all the great information and knowledge passed on in the forums. After a long search, I pulled the trigger on the following 3.8 serial serif 5513. Feedback or any red flags on the watch always appreciated. Have not even received the watch and am already feeling the itch for a 1665. Any way to cure this disease???
Thanks
