I think we are about to see a large resurgence of popularity on 5513's..I have sold 5 in the last two months..
I only sold three in my entire carrer until then!!
also have sold nearly a dozen dials in the last few months as well..
its building like a big pimple ready to explode!!!!

Classic beauty!
Really, 5513 is looking more and more desirable, as times go by!
And that sharkskin strap gives it whole new presence, I think it looks great!
Congrats!
