One week: Two new members.

I was offered two separate deals I couldn't refuse.

I would like to welcome these two into my collection, and brag about it here

Wow.... that early 60's sub is seriously beautiful and looks to be in amazing condition. So often the hour plots have flaked and are damaged. Do you have a close up of the dial.

Absolutely love the early chapter dial subs......

What year is that beauty ?

Hi Jack, thanks for the compliment. It's a partially serviced '66 5513. The dial is completely original, but I definitely see a replacement of the insert and the crown was changed to trip-lock instead of the original twin-lock.

Here's a closer look I can try giving you...
