Here at Falco, we've had the pleasure of handling some amazing 5513s, but none rarer than this. The “Explorer Dial” 5513s were primarily marketed in the UK and are extremely rare. Existing only during the gilt-dial era (circa 1961–1966), which itself is estimated to account for only around 4% of all 5513/5512 models produced, only a very small number of original, honest examples have ever surfaced on the market.
We shall leave out the detailed referencing of individual features in this particular instance, as the watch sold before it had a chance to go on our site. Simply amazing.
