Red Triangle Bezel insert for 5512/5513
Ive been trying to get a red triangle insert for my 5512 and 5513 (aftermarket) but cant seem to find one. I know that the 5512 for sure came with a red triangle bezel insert during its first year of production although i cant seem to find any replacements. Ive read around about how the 5513 bezel inserts snaps right into the 5510 bezel though i don't feel to confident about the 5510 replacement fitting the 5513.
I would love to hear feedback from everyone, also I would appreciate if people wouldnt comment about keeping my watch all original and how outrageous it might sound to do what i am doing. -thank you |

The ref 5512/5513 for sure never came with a red triangle insert in 1972

I'm aware of this... It was done only for a year in 1958 when the first 5512 was released. The reason im asking around is they must have recycled the bezels from the 5510 for the first year
