Incoming 5513
Finally found the foundation to restart a vintage collection, having now sold my 6265.

Full set 5513 from 1969, non-serif dial, Pat. Pending diver extension... I'm picking her up on Saturday so more pictures will come after the weekend. Seller's pictures for now.

Now. To find the right 1675/16750.

Also. Any comments on bezel, case, hands, anything really, welcome.

Not a full set actually, just fully original according to the seller.
