After literal years of waffling, missed opportunities and just general indecision, I finally went ahead and pulled the trigger. I should have bought it five years ago when it could have been had for far less but I finally bit the bullet and I couldn’t be happier. It may not be much but it’s mine and I’m super excited about it! It’s an N serial with the tritium dial; pictures don’t do the patina justice!

Thanks! I believe the N serial puts it in 1991

Haha. I was so distracted by how nice it was that I didn't see that in your original post. You did good! I really like this piece.

Congrats! You'll make up for time lost in the time to come on that one. I let my 14060 go for a new 114060. I've been sorry that I let it go but recently found another one that's here for keeps. I really appreciate the 5 digit Sub now more than ever. Enjoy that Beauty for a long time to come!!...

Great reference and looks like it’s in superb shape. Nice fat lugs. Congrats!

You have it. The One. "Shaken not Stirred". The Classic. No Eye, No Knobs, No date, No Nothing. The Watch. I have owned a 5513 since 1966 and love it. Too Basic for some. Enjoy yours to the Max. Best from Rocketman at Pad 39A.
