^^Thanks Springer, for both the nod on the watch and also for all the knowledge you have shared and continue to share on this forum. I can honestly say that following your analysis on the various watches that get posted here has greatly increased my knowledge base in all things vintage Rolex, it is very much appreciated and thank you.

Very nice, that is a gorgeous watch. Big congrats

Fantastic find, with the sales receipt. $185.00. That was more then a few years ago.

Enjoy this Fine Watch, as I have mine for more than fifty years. It is Basic and Easy to read at a glance. I could have taken better care of it. Then again it would not have the character and memories from exploits around the world.

Rocketman: if I can associate those same memories to this “new-to-me” 5513, I’ll feel very lucky! I’m sure the “dings” you’ve acquired on yours all trigger a time/tale of life that I hope makes you happy, despite the wear and tear on your time piece.

That watch is in beautiful shape. Hard to believe anyone wore that their entire life.

Beautiful 5513, congrats

What a find! Congratulations!

A word of caution...If you want family privacy, you should also black out the owner's full name (includes middle initial) that he signed at the bottom of the bill of sale and the City / State he bought it in. A Google search reveals his identity, profession, and obituary.

That aside, you have an incredible ensemble. I have a 5513 too but wish my grandfather kept all the goodies that you own. Very awesome.

BigAppleBill · 23 August 2019, 11:12 AM

Wow! Like an old Porsche barn find! Congrats!

Skinny Rogers · 23 August 2019, 11:54 AM

Simply beautiful!

As honest as it gets.

Congrats!!

That is beautiful. Only if I could travel back in time the things I would buy.
