Cool
Congrats to you. It is beautiful. Examples with a fat case and excellent dial are becoming hard to find.

Thanks guys - without the advice, support and education from this forum I would probably have bought an inferior example - so cheers to you all

Very nice watch! Now I hate to ask you lot MORE questions but wondering if there's any comment about this 5513, or the seller? I'm very tempted...http://forums.watchuseek.com/f29/fso...a-1264450.html

Thanks!

And just for a laugh here's a pic of the ratty old Explorer I'm wearing today http://imgur.com/Py4oRE5

Thanks again guys - pre marriage and children I owned red sub, 1680, 16520, explorer 1 and gradually sold them all to fund house/wedding etc - back then I was more of a heuer Monaco man and owned 5 of these and although I dabbled in Rolex I am still very much learning - this 5513 is my first step back in and I am enjoying being back !
