This Rolex watch is in overall great, honest vintage condition. The case is strong with normal signs of wear; it is possibly unpolished and the bevels are still visible. The inside caseback is stamped "5512" which is not uncommon to find in 5513's. We often times see 5512 or 5513's with the mismatched caseback because Rolex would use whatever that had available at the time. The bezel ring has remained sharp and the black insert is in great condition with light wear. The pip has aged to a beautiful cream color. The dial is in overall great condition with light patina and the lume on the hour markers are a soft cream color, matching the pip. The hands have developed patina and the lume in the hands has aged to an attractive marshmallow color. The bracelet is in great condition with normal signs of wear and light stretch between the links. This has a stainless steel 93150 oyster bracelet with 12 links, 580 end links and divers extension. The clasp is marked "M" indicating it is from 1988.
Rolex made the reference 5513 from around 1962 to 1989 and here is a later example from circa 1988. The defining characteristics of these last generation 5513's would be the white gold borders around the hour markers, this is known as "white gold surrounds." This is a characteristic that started in the mid-late 1980s and is still featured on Submariners of this day. These late 1980s Submariners offer a great value are perfect for someone looking to dip their toes in the world of vintage sports Rolex.
Fantastic transaction and watch even better than described / pictures. Tanya was great to deal with, easy communication, give her a raise!
Watch shows better then in pictures . Second watch purchased from Bobs since October. Very happy with both experiences . I mistakenly overpaid on the price.of my last purchase. Along with the watch was a check for the overpayment. I feel Bobs as honest and trustworthy. Thanks
Excellent service . Fantastic communication. I couldn’t of asked for more .
The watch was delivered very quickly and was exactly as advertised. They even provided a few vintage pamphlets from the period. All my questions were answered promptly. Overall great experience. I will definitely buy my next Rolex from Bob’s.
The condition of this vintage Rolex 5513 is nicer than I anticipated based on the age. Your staff was very helpful and went out of their way to help make sure I had enough links in the band.
