Do you have any more (and better) images of the dial and watch?

According to C. White’s Vintage Rolex Field Manual at page 45 a marking T Swiss T without a hashtag corresponds to early 63’ tritium dials. OP’s dial has a hashtag which MAY not match with his stated case serial number.

 My 1.28M serial number 5513. Relumed, but gilt lettering is all original. For your comparison….. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The grafia of the letters is just curious, sorry for my English.
Check W from Swiss, just to put an example, never saw any W like this one. Submariner letters are very weird as well, from my knowledge and after checking with others vintage experts they have concluded is a fake dial. Glad I didn’t pull the trigger Also note letter R from Submariner, very rare as well, didn’t saw any other like this one. Growing and learning all the way |

Same here, this serial number is not for a 1963 5513, it’s more like 65-66. I have a similar watch and as I recall the inside caseback indicated 65-66 timeframe, which should have the hashtag
