Thoughts on this 5513?

Serial checks out, seller seems legitimate - thoughts on condition here?

Cheers

looks pretty good.

Long 5 insert, 702 crown and dial looks okay - I question if its been relumed before? the indices seem overly lumpy but could be the angle / crystal distortion.

Let the others chime in

That’s a 700 not a 702 crown.

Overall pretty nice but I don’t know ‘13 dials as well as ‘12 dials. Looks to be orig Nap crystal and crown so either a really early service or no service? Case looks nice too to me.

I’m guessing around 1968 year?

it does appear a bit lumpy on the lume plots, so i too, would wonder if its been relumed. love the 700 crown, case is decently nice... not sure how i feel about the insert though, nice long 5, but it sppears cracked below the piphole... i dun mind not having the pip, just concerned about the crack-not sure if i would be able to accept that

Spot on with 1968.

All I can add is the hands are cracked. Can't tell if they have been stabilized.
