Late 5513 GILT
Well the Patek is gone... this late 5513(1,5 million) GILT replaced its place. Just wanted to share some pictures of the watch, and any feedback will be much appreciated.

You know what I think.

Nothing beats gilt gloss. Congrats!

Thing of beauty. Hard to beat a minty gilt gloss.

Stunning example. I'd just be concerned about more spidering on the dial that you see around the hour plots.

My best friend's dad had a 1965 gilt 5513 from new. He took care of it, but the dial aged terribly through no fault of his, with odd patches on the gloss and spidering. Maybe some batches were better than others, but that's the one thing that has kept me from buying a gilt Sub or GMT.

Nice. Take a pic under the sun. The gilt will pop.


I blame it on autoconnect.
