For years I thought the only Rolex I liked was the Daytona, but now I’ve actually gone right off them, and am slowly growing an obsession about the 5513. Time to sell a child I guess to fund my next buy...

Children are highly overrated a good 5513 lasts for ever lol.

Good to be back :drinks:

Things have been beyond crazy-busy in my normal life so I had to come back and hang around here to regain a little sanity!

That's the best thread ever... My dream watch 5513. Can't wait to start the project with a really known person here...
This week should receive the one I ordered to repsource, and start of 2019 will start the project to get my graal.
Hope to see a lot of picture here and tutorial to mod that beautiful time piece.

One of my grail watches: 5513! I bought it 2 years ago from a member of a german forum.

Old MBW case & bezel, Yuki dial - relumed, MBW hands, Swiss ETA, Gen plexi, insert & crown.

Will post some pics in a moment ...

Finally got my first one from repsource. Swap the stainless steel bracelet (didn’t like it) for a nato strap (obviously the JB..).
Really like the size can’t wait to start the franken project.
