1675 & 5513 Case Profile Comparison Pics


Recommended Posts

Posted

I took a few pics this afternoon for reference purposes. I suppose that there might be some members here that would be interested in seeing these pics.

Oddly enough, both watches are from '66-'67.

As u can see, one is thicker than the other. Actually, the 5513 is significantly thicker.

The 1675 is sleek and contoured to fit the wrist.

The 5513 is like a tank, thick, and much more bulky than the 1675.

They are not very similar to one another.

And, of course, they were designed with different purposes in mind.

Enjoy...

Different, yes. But they're both great... they're real Rolexes from the better times.

Fantastic reference photos! I could look at those all day. Thanks for sharing.

I'm struck by the similar appearance of the aged markers and hands. I guess it can be attributed to them both being born at around the same time...But it's still remarkable!

I always think of the vintage pieces and wish for one. Then comes the work to build a 5513 from an MBW, etc, etc. and I become less wantful.

Then Eunomians, Nanuq, and Ubi show up with their's and *BANG* I wanna check my bank account.

Great pics of great watches! Pure horological porn.

Thanks!
