Hi,
What else do you want to know.
Scott already told you that the watch should be dd. between 66 to 69 since it has a meters 1st dial on it. To be sure, just remove the bracelet and make some pics. between the lugs. You will find the serial 5513 on "12" and the serial which belongs to the time produced on "6".
It is in pretty much used condition, but a great watch and nothing which is a real big issue
You should either go to an AD or a fellow member here in TRF to get it polished and checked (movement etc.....).
Do you habe also any papers to the watch (warranty, service papers, any repair recepts......)?
Also some pics. of the inside of the back would bring some clarification because many watchmaker leave a "signature or sign" when they did a service.
As said before also it bears a fully original tropic #19 which is scratched but might been polished as well if the scratches are not too deep.
The dial looks stunning as well as the hands.
Welcome to the forum and feel free to ask more if you want so
Best
Axel
