predfan2001 Posted November 28, 2007 Report Posted November 28, 2007 (edited) After nearly a year of wanting a nice 5513 nodate Submariner rep, I'm saying screw it and ordering a cn vintage 5513 or 5512 rep. I'm sick of looking and I'm disheartened after my 5513 project didn't pan out (the rep dial I had was too small for a rep case). I would order a MBW 5512 rep but it appears TTK doesn't have it. Just trying to make up my mind which one to order. Trustys 5513, Perfect Clones 5512, Silix 3-6-9?? Any other ideas???? I want a nice one of these (5513): I might consider one of these (5512): Edited November 28, 2007 by predfan2001

predfan2001 Posted November 28, 2007 Author Report Posted November 28, 2007 This is the 5513 I tried to put together but the dial was gen sized and the case too large. The "vintaged" movement: The case:
Jetsons Posted November 28, 2007 Report Posted November 28, 2007 predfan, in case of an emergency, the MBW/MBK 1680 uses the identical case of the 5513 down to the markings. I believe TTK has these ready to go. You should have zero trouble selling the dial if you have no need for it. If your dial has gen dimensions, it should work on the MBK case as others have installed gen dials. Throw in a gen T-19 and you'll be set.
By-Tor Posted November 28, 2007 Report Posted November 28, 2007 Good luck Pred. The Subs you have previously modified look fantastic.

Even the case is engraved 5513 on the MBK 1680 So you should have your 5513 soon!
