    Along with what Alligoat pointed out, notice the "maxi dial" index dots and the proportional font in SUBMARINER.  Those are tells you can see from arm's length.
     

    Thank you guys! Saved me a bit of money. I’ll be ordering a Ruby 5513 dial then. Inner case engravings will be redone at some point as well.

    An MBW case will be inscribed with 1665 and will say- Polex or Polfy somewhere- between the lugs or on the inside of the caseback. Monarch Polfy and Gelena Shitinerand also come to mind- typical MBW inscriptions. SN will be 5,7 to 5,9xx,xxx, being late 1978 or early 1979. But no one will ever see the inscriptions with a bracelet on and the caseback closed. 
    The 5513 dial which you have isn't a very good one- the bottom serifs on the L and E in ROLEX are wrong as are the serifs on OYSTER PERPETUAL. Might check out the 5513 dials from Ruby, MQ and Phong.
     
     

    Jesus.. talk about WIS eagle eyes.. I have contacted Ruby and will go with her. MQ is too expensive for me.

    So I just bought this watch on another forum and supposedly it’s an MBW case with a nice slim case and slim bezel. Was debating on what to do and even had a conversation with member hugop. He told me that a DSRD dial might fit because mkw case wasn’t big enough to accommodate at 26.5 dial.. so I did a bit of research and came across the 5513 HEV which was created for COMEX. Bammm!! I decided to try this project out..
