New insert and pearl.......

Hi all. Just wanted to share my new inset and pearl I sourced for my 70 5513. I know it might not be exactly period correct but it's close enough for me and I love it! Thanks again for all the knowledge and advice you guys give on this forum.

Btw I got the watch from Nick aka greekbum and he also got the matching pearl for me and helped with the insert. He's a top notch seller and a great guy who knows his stuff! Thanks nick!

Thanks all! This has been a great first step in to the vintage world for me. I love how each watch has its own distinct charm & character.

Very nice 5513 John Baker!!
