Okay, I'm in.
Say hello to me new favorite watch. The matte dials are awesome, but I think the later ones with WG surrounds are just as cool. Especially with yellowed tritium.
Cheers.

Fantastic, the perfect watch! The dial is simple and uncluttered, like my my brain

That's gorgeous. If I get a sub, it's going to be a 5513 - oldest one I can find in the mintiest condition and with nice patina - like this one.

My only Rolex so far and such a variation in dials and details, here's my smudge crown meters first, I remember hating it at first 'not being perfect' but now I love it more and more each time I wear it: (you have to remember what the rolex factory looked like in the 60s and that they outsourced their service dials etc....)
