I have a jubilee bracelet .. I'm assuming it's a rep. Not sure where I got it. It's in the bowels of my parts bin. i'll try to snap pics tonight. Might be what you're looking for.

First link looks a tad loose. Best you just give it to me.

Not a fan of the MBW dials. You should buy the ND 1665 dial I have for sale.

I believe it starts with "R".

Too bad. But rich paying $450 for the whole watch just for the movement (although that's what I did). That factory is very strict about selling the movement only.

no problem. Best of luck. Ryan is one of the best dealers out there IMHO.

Ryan at InTime can get It. http://www.intime.co/

Oh. That's just the rotor. Perfectly normal to hear that.

Sounds like one of the retaining ring screws is loose. If so its a very simple fix. Open up the Caseback and check. If you don't have a case opener, use a ball of ductape. Sticky side out.

No idea about eBay crystals. But yes. Cousins carry Sternkreuz T19s. Made in Germany

Ofrei has superdome T 19's....but they are sold out. I just bought couple from Sternkruez T19's from CousinsUk as part of a bigger order.

The Rolex buckle I already had in my parts bin. But it does come with an acceptable one.

Buttery soft. Nothing beats Horween cordovan

Bulang & Sons oxblood shell cordovan with Rolex buckle. So I guess this is Phase 1.2 for my 5513 project.

No more than $500. I'll offer $550 cause I'm feeling generous

I was experimenting ok?? Yeesh However, I give props to whoopie for making an effort to strive for perfection while trying to balance cost at the same time. This is a rep forum after all. Good for him.

You are correct. Not open 6's.

Mock up of lumed whoopie dial in the HH case:

It is. Corrosion pits, polished several times. It will be a perfect match. Will keep an eye out for a weathered bezel as well.

Yes. Phase II will have the proper aged hands (which are in the mail)... And gen '66 mid case.

Been meaning to complete a vintage 5513 for quite some time. Finally managed to get few remaining parts last week. In particular, a gilt dial I stumbled upon on a trip to NYC (thank you @lionsandtigers). I'm calling this Phase one, because I'm not entirely happy with it yet. I thought I had bought a gen set of hands. As it turned out, the hour and minute did not fit ; only the seconds hand worked. So their authenticity is questionable. I've installed temporary aftermarket hands for now. Here is the breakdown: Yuki 5513 case/caseback - custom engraving ST 703 tube Gen 703 crown Gen 5513 gilt dial relumed Yuki hour and minute hands Gen(?) seconds hand Gen cal 1520 movement Gen NOS retaining ring and friction disk (service) Gen NOS bezel (service) Gen mid font (?) insert - missing dot (i prefer it without) Still waiting to mount it on a strap which has not yet arrived. Phase 2 will be exciting. Stay tuned.

Gen 5514 Comex dial? Good luck with that

Fugly. He should stick to the Comex sea dwellers.

Nice. Big fan of the trip 6.
