Case

Excellent case that has previously been polished and has light wear from use. The watch has a new Rolex replacement crystal.

The caseback is stamped: 5513  II 67

Bezel/Insert

Excellent condition 'long 5' insert that has faded to a gray/blue hue with age and has some wear from use. The pearl is intact and it has aged a dark creamy patina. 

Dial

Very nice tropical glossy gilt dial with matching creamy yellow hour markers. The lume on the markers is completely intact. The glossy finish on the dial is in great condition with a few specific exceptions and is starting to show light spidering.  There are 3 marks on the dial, a light mark that is only in the glossy part between the 3 and 4 o'clock markers, a deeper mark at the top of the 'o' in "Rolex" that was likely from a watchmaker taking of the hands off at an earlier service, and a larger mark at the 6 o'clock. Some of the glossy finish is flaking up on the bottom edge as well. There is light aging at the edge near the 12 o'clock as well. The dial has aged to have the tropical golden brown appearance, lightest at the top right and gradually darker toward the bottom left.

Hands

Very nice original gilt hands that have aged to a shade lighter than the markers. There is aging on the metal portion of the hands.

Bracelet/Strap

Excellent newer 93150 bracelet with 11 links and 580 end links. The bracelet has very light stretch.

Accessories

This watch comes with only the watch as shown in the photos.
