Case: The recently polished case is excellent showing wide, sharp, prominent bevels that closely resemble the factory profile. The bezel insert is also in excellent condition and has faded to a lavender/grey hue.
Dial: The tropical gilt Bart Simpson dial is excellent and has aged with a deep speckled dark chocolate Patina. The lume has aged to a warm creamy hue and the hands have been relumed and color-matched to the dial. The lume on the dial glows brightly when exposed to UV and falls off rapidly at the same rate.
Bracelet: The 13 link folded Oyster bracelet is excellent showing average stretch for its age. The clasp is stamped with a matching 1966 date code.
Accessories: None.
Notes Over the past 56 years time has woven immense complexity and depth into this particular 5513.
