5513 service dial vs 14060

Hi all,

Looking to add a no date sub to my collection, and am debating a 14060 vs 5513 with service dial. Would pick the 5513, but am concerned if I ever want to move on from it, the service dial will make it hard, plus the 14060 is great too. What would you all go for?

Have you looked at 5513's from around 85 to end of production that have a gloss dial as original. Much cheaper than a Maxi Dial, but tritium and plexi and not much more than a 14060.

I have both in my collection and I prefer 5513 . It has vintage feel that you can resist

I FINALLY DID IT!!! A few years later then the post but here she is. I would appreciate any comments/history of the particular model I purchased. It is from 1988, box and papers, serviced twice and has what I think is a service dial/hands/bezel.

93150 bracelet dated 1988. That’s all I know and am eager to learn! It’s like a modern vintage!
