Finally got a Hodinkee strap for my shoeless 5513 meters first 1967. Also waiting for a Gunny leather strap to arrive.

After the previous post, now I'm on the hunt for a gilt dial $ub, too! I think they even look better than a red $ub.

I have a 5512 incoming - it's funny to see how many folks wear NATO straps. Rich

I thought having one submariner "no date" was enough...



Then I had to have a 5512 just to try it out...



But quickly flipped it to make way for another 5513!!!



Incoming from TPT. Meters first 1.06M serial. I plan to wear one on the oyster and the other one on some Jedly leather.

Thanks Bob! Looks to have a service dial, but doesn't really matter to me. 1.06m should be gilt right?
