If you are going to buy a No Date Sub go all in and buy a Non-COSC.

5513 is sweet but expensive you can get a 14060 in excellent condition for 3000 or less.

It's an S serial 14060 Non-COSC Sub. I like the clean dial no COSC.

I'm with Michael.

I have a Y Series Date...but passed on a nice No Date / non-COSC a few months ago. Sort of regret it. But I don't regret the PAM 111 I got for about the same price!
