Just picked up my 1967 meters first 5513 from UltraJewels, the certified Rolex service provider in Mexico. Full service (first in 14 years), new acrylic crystal, tube and all seals. I specified no hands replacement and no face replacement. Band was polished to as new, but only light polish to case. Retained original bezel as well. Total cost was 450 USD net. Watch was in their hands for 8 days. I am very happy with the price and the post overhaul performance of the watch.

I was looking at the original paperwork issued on July 6, 1967, the day I bought the watch. I paid 376 USD for it. How inflation has changed things.
