It has had so many parts replaced that collector appeal is severely compromised. Dial, hands, insert, bracelet clasp all appear to be recent. At heart there appears to be a correct 5513 Cx case (HEV?), but most with an interest in vintage pieces would hesitate to drop £20k for Trigger's broom.

FWIW, the original dial probably did not bear a Comex logo.
