As always - stunning shots Guys

My 5513 on a 78360 bracelet today - the C+I bracelet it came on makes me nervous. Have been wearing this non-stop since I got it. Pretty sure I found my sweetspot with this classic.

May change onto a leather NATO for the w/e

Fantastic, Ben. The cases and patina on this pair of beauties are amazing! Are they both MK 3 inserts?
