New to me 5513

Hi TRF,

Just picked up this birth year 5513 Submariner. Loving it so much and won’t take it off. Vintage is addictive!

Looks fantastic - would be curious to hear about what your wearing habits will be (akin to the question above around whether you'll baby it or not)

Beautiful, always love a nice 5513. I’ve always craved a late 80s era example someday.
