Each of you got two new beauties and you flashed some pics and have yet to give us updates on them. To share is to care!!  Let's hear some thoughts or first impression of them, cause we all know neither of you have taken them off since the UPS man dropped them off. |

My guess would be too busy staring and playing with the crown to type anything. |

Well, You are both right!!!! In the first 24hrs since I've had the 5513 It's deviation has been +/-0 sec.!(How is that possible!!!) The dial is elegant simplicity! Such a clean look! When I set the watch I was amazed by the effortlessness of the winding crown. The acrylic crystal with it's domed effect is beautiful!! The weight of the watch kind of reminds me of the 1675 and sits so very comfortable on the wrist. I have a little bit of "Rolex Rattle" due to the non-sel bracelet. I love it!!! Reminds me of another era!!!  I wanted a dial as white as I could get and feel so fortunate to have found exactly what I wanted. I told myself I would be careful when and where I wore it. I hope this watch doesn't make me out to be a liar again! LOL! In short I LOVE IT!!!! |

I unfortunately don't have as many Rolos to compare the GMT II to as some of you guys, so all I can say is that I love it even more than I thought I would. The blue/red is so unique...I can't think of another watch that looks similar....other than the Alpha! Mike...yours is doing better than mine. I'm +3 sec over the first day. Still fine by me.  Hope to get a few minutes tomorrow or over the weekend to snap some better pics. |

Mike, The 5513 is an awesome watch!! Comfort and looks a killer combo for sure. Sam, The GMT is tied for the most comfortable watch I have ever put on, tied with the exp II. Gosh I have owned and traded too many of these damn things, LOL!!   |
