What is the ultimate 5513 and why!?

Hey all, so up until getting my '68 tudor I always thought (based on photos I've seen) that a Maxi Mark III was my favorite 5513.

After my recent acquisition of a '68 tudor though, I'm really liking a few things about it that prompt me to become more interested in older 5513s. Namely, I'm obsessed with the fat font insert! I don't think I could go back to a non-fat font insert now!!! Next, I really like the superdome...never knew I would as much! Always thought from photos that the superdome was overkill... but alas i really love it. Lastly, the semi-pointed crown guards and the twin lock crown. Love those simple accents.

SO my new found appreciation of the vintage tudor has made me wonder if the late 5513 maxi III is really still my "grail" 5513 or not.

Anyway, what is your favorite 5513 and why!!?? Please post pictures if you already have your favorite 5513 version in possession!
