Need Feedback: My Vintage 5513 w/ Explorer Dial

[junbug5150]

Hey everyone,

 

I'm just waiting on the hands from Raffles to complete this but wanted to get your opinion. Not a fan? Should I switch to normal 5513 dial? Planning on putting it on a rivet bracelet.

 

Let me know what you think:

 

 

Insert #2

 

Insert #3

 

Thanks for looking!

It's looks best on insert #1. Nice looking piece and good choice for the rivet.

Are you planning to insert a pearl?

Insert 1 looks much better than that other on but still needs something better in my opinion. Dial looks the part though.

I've thought about it. I have a nice yellow pearl but like to hear on this as well. Thanks for you input

Like a ghost bezel? Or in between 1 & 2?

Not so much the fade, I just don't like the inserts? Where did you buy them?

Just some left overs from previous projects.

The numbering on the third insert looks the best, but that pearl is the wrong style. Personally, I'd go with that one, but fade it out and remove the pearl.

 

Might I ask what case that is? (ie: Cartel/Silix/whoever?)

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not sure where this case originated from. Someone was selling a whole bundle of Rollie cases for $70 on RWI many months ago.
