Two 5513s: your thoughts?!
First one has a Purplish bezel (and at the time the pictures were taken, the time on watch was 3:35)

Daylight pics would help a lot. Really too dark now. Sorry.
Neither watch seem to have very nice dial and lume. Perhaps just the pictures? To give you an advice is to first look at the dial, then the case, hands etc. Insert is one of the last things as they are easily swapped later. Try to find a mint example with a nice dial with matching hands in a nice case. Good luck! |

What are your specific questions about the watches? And what is the beginning of the serial numbers?
I agree with the above about the dials/hands. I love patina, but I don't like dirty-looking lume, which can also be an indication that moisture has gotten into the watch at some point. |

Both have artificially bleached aftermarket inserts and similar dials with spotty lume. Better pictures taken in natural sun would help.

@ submerded007
Based on the pics you provided, I would shift my attention toward the seller. __________ Instagram: @onthedial |
