Well, thanks to this forum and its amazing data base of information i now own two 5126's.
The first 5126-8090 (Jun 1968 proof) English only date wheel, is just beautiful with its original bracelet (including the instruction on the inside), slight wear and a couple of small scratches at 10-11 o'clock, but working fine! It will look even better once it is cleaned ad serviced, happy days!
The second is a 5126-8120 (March 1969 Proof) English only date wheel, is a little worst for wear, non original bracelet, one case scratch on the back (happy), badly scratched glass, damaged bezel/insert and water stained face (i think)
But it works fine and keeps good time ;D
Now i just need to save up my pocket money for Pete K to service them and all will be fine in the world of Rod
