5513.."Holy Grail Watch Batman"...my early fathers day gift

This was an early fathers day surprise gift from my wife. I wanted that " been out in the world awhile look" and not the " been in a box in the attic awhile look". I can't convay the emotion provoked by holding this watch let alone putting it on your wrist :eek: ....I am truly amazed and hopelessy addicted. I was floored by how excited I actually got when holding this sub for the first time.......

Saw your post over on RG. Here's a little history for ya, just don't tell the missus.

Here's the post on VRF where the watch was bought:

Days earlier, the same exact watch was sold on ebay for $6000.00, and that included the original bracelet. So, the seller on VRF bought the watch for 6, took the bracelet for himself, added a 20 dollar nato and jacked the price three grand.

Good luck with it, and wear in the best of health

Thanks for the sarcasm. My post was strictly educational for the membership who may be in the market for high end vintage gens. The fact is that the watch sold for market value on VRF. Dealers keep their eyes open, and simply buy and sell to make a profit.

Any gilt underline 5513 is extremely rare, and certainly a very beautiful and generous gift.

Regardless of how much your wife paid, its a beautiful gift and you have a wonderful wife / family. Enjoy (the watch and your family) in great health...... :thumbsupsmileyanim:
