Condition and shape
The condition of this vintage Submariner 5513 is worn but taken care off. The inside of the caseback shows several service hallmarks which indicates the watch has been serviced frequently, this matches the story of the previous owner who bought the watch in the early 1970’s in Amsterdam. He had the watch being serviced at Rolex a few times, in the 1980’s the the dial had been changed with the then current tritium gloss version for the 5513 submariner. The gloss tritium dial which has been produced in the 1980’s only is one of the most charming dials for a Submariner. The markers and hands have a creamy vanilla color patina and this Rolex Submariner 5513 really breathes vintage all the way while being ready to rock for another few decades or more. The original bracelet shows some stretch, on request we can deliver the watch on a newer type more solid bracelet with optional diving clasp.
Guarantee and original papers
