So attending a GTG is one great fun But there's an aftereffect Many sleepless night thinking about one piece I saw and fell in love with at my very first sight As some of you probably know, I always wanted a nice chapter ring 5512 But the hunt is a real ...  

Nice catch Sam!

That dial has some presence....truly beautiful. I bet in the real it is astonishing. Congrats

Touché !.. Again an error- didn't look carefully enough .. ;))

.. was erroneously under the impression that PCG & CR would go hand-in-hand; but it's the other way round: if CR, then PCG ? (isn't it ?).. Just shows, still much more I've got to learn - 2 errors in 3 hrs - brrrr. Soo much homework, in the Rolex Vintage ... 

You need stronger pills. :))) Yes, when CR, necessarily PCG.

I did learn a lot from your posts on the evolution of gilt dial subs, and the submariner inserts.. Helped me a lot on purchasing this piece So I have to thank you for your great educational post Best, Sam

You have to admit that seeing the watch in the flesh is essential

At the high end of the segment you really need to see the watch first hand. I am glad my posts were of some help. I hope one day our pates will cross and we share the passion in person. Best Bill

Indeed! Thanks [nt]

I was fortunate to see Bill's gilt 5513 at a GTG a few months ago, and it got me hooked. Those gilt 5513s are just awesome. I love the gilt hand and the great coloring of the plots - almost an off green/yellow. They just look so cool. You got a great exam... 

Mike,

the gilt subs are pure pleasure for the eyes to see… Thanks Mike Sam

Gorgeous catch Sam! Congrats!! It is very true that...

... sometimes our collection will take a path that was not exactly in our plans! But what a delicious direction it takes, like in this case! Enjoy your new watch in good health! Very cordially, Abel.

That is true Abel...
