5513 help please
Hi All.
I haven't got this watch yet so have not inspected it fully but looking at the pictures does it look OK to you? The letter E on the text in between the lugs look like all the horizontal lines are the same length, I have heard the middle line should be shorter, is this correct? The gap where the crown meets the case looks wrong too to me what do you guys think? Is the serial number 3,4million 1972? Should the case back have a date code? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers Mick |

My opinion is that it is fake, based on the letter "E" used in the words "STAINLESS STEEL."
On genuine Rolex watches the middle horizontal line is short.

Not good.
Long Es and the shape of the crown guards. |

Thanks for the replies.
What about the case back? Does that look bad to you also. Cheers Mick |

What does it really matter about the case back? The case is an obvious fake.
Just leave it alone.

Welcome to the Forum!
If you do not have this watch yet, hopefully you have not paid for it, walk away! You may want to expose the seller here to alert folks of this fraudulent offer to you. |
