Is this a genuine 5512/3 insert?

Hi guys,

it's supposed to be a 5512/3 service insert.

Seller claims it came with a Tritium pearl.

Your thoughts?

Cheers

nope....not even close.

I thought so too.

The genuine service insert have a thin font.

The 4's have way more space.

So what kind of insert is this?

[Justasgood]

Crap.

Gen service dial used on 6536/6538 and 5508/5510.

i wouldnt be so quick to say its not a gen insert, its just not a service lumi insert, as the seller said its a tritium pearl, even the 4 has the serif, get a closer shot of some of the numbers

I'm not saying that its not gen, but l can't find any reference of a gen service insert for 5513/1680 that looks like this one.

He says it must have come from his 1680 though.

He is now a little confused himself.

As I stated in my previous post, it's gen with no doubts.

Hard to find references because it's a scarce service insert, it fits on 5512/13/1680/1665 but originally was intended to be use in the non crown guard subs..

Just like this one which is, obviously, a full-specs gen:

If you already bought it and don't want it just let me know
