Closing at £156 someone got a bargain ....

Super rare Rolex parts do pop up for sale on eBay every now and again.
But when did you last see a ... 5513 ... gilt ... skewed 6 ... mono-plot ... dial.
The rarity alone is amazing but coupled with that patina WOW ......






If any of you fellas were disappointed by being outbid on the eBay auction, I have these similar dials available.
I would do a great price too if someone wants to take all five

sadly it will show up later in another eBay auction on a watch...fully painted and like new. Someone will buy the watch thinking how great it looks.

Nice tropical gilt with slightly crazing to the dial.

That six looks a little "drunk" to me.
