Regarding prices of a 5513, the price of the right bracelet is coincides with...do not buy aftermarket crap if you have a nice watch that you were able to afford...

Suck it up and buy an authentic bracelet. If it makes you feel better, they are actually easier to sell than watches. Depending on which era 5513 you're talking about, you might enjoy an older bracelet, like a 9315 or rivet bracelet.

If I’d have to buy a 7206 plus endlinks 80 for my 5513 I’d struggle for sure...from which year is your sub?

You can always buy a 20mm C&I instead of the 7206!

Absolutely spot on. For daily wear, the 93150 is the way to go. For a premium, you can get a period correct 9315 that is less user friendly. Do not got aftermarket. Get an authentic one.

Alright thank you for your answer guys. I will go for an authentic one you are right.

So for a 5513 (service case) I should have a look for a 93150 with 580 enlinks right ? are the 501 EL ok as well ?
Thanks!

I believe 93150 with 580 is the correct bracelet, depending on the year. I searched for a ‘79 for about a year before I found one. Save the search in Ebay and you’ll get an email when one is listed. Be careful, lots of fakes out there. Make sure seller has lots of good feedback.

What do you think ?

in 5-10 years you will kick yourself for buying aftermarket. It also turns everyone off and makes them think what else is wrong with the watch. Invest in your timepieces to keep them period correct.

Do you have recommendations or good 93150 alternative ?

Thanks !
