This 5513 is in overall great attractive, vintage condition. The case is in good condition with normal signs of wear. The Inner case back is stamped "5513" and "VI.65". Serial and reference numbers are visible. The "Long 5" bezel insert is in great condition with normal signs of wear. The pip is a later replacement and has developed patina. The dial is in overall good, honest condition with some patina and darker patina around the edges. The lume plots on the dial are all full and have aged to a pale yellow and some have developed darker patina in the center of the plots. The hands have developed patina and aged to a darker sand color; when looking closely some of the lume in the hour hand shows some wear/cracking. It has a Stainless steel 7205 Rivet Oyster bracelet with 13 links and 80 endlinks; the clasp is stamped "4-67" indicating it is from 1967. The rivet Oyster bracelet is in excellent condition with normal wear and some stretch between the links which is not uncommon.
Pre-owned Rolex Submariner 5513 (1967) introduced around 1962 and it was in production until 1989. It was one of the longest continually produced references from the brand. Rolex initially used glossy dials in this model and swapped to matte around 1966, like this example. When Rolex went to the matte dial they also put the depth rating as "200m = 660ft" and these are known as "meters first" in the collecting community. Eventually Rolex would swap the depth rating to feet first around the early 1970s and have continued this trend to the modern offerings. One theory on this change is that Rolex wanted to boost sales in the United States, but to our knowledge Rolex has not made any definitive statements on this shift.
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.
