Question about a 5513 dial..

Hey fellows, I am being offered a 5513 with serial dating to 1975 but the dial is a 4 liner which seems to be the dial used on the 5512. Has anyone seen a 5513 with 4lines? Possible service dial? thanks for any insight.

Nope. Wrong dial regardless. Even the late '80s gloss-dial 5513s were two-liners.

The other possibility is that perhaps the seller is wrong and the watch is indeed a 5512. Note that the case back might say 5513 even though it's a 5512. The case backs were interchangeable from the factory. You'd need to confirm the reference number between the lugs.

Photos would help.
