Available for sale today is this gorgeous, 2 liner Rolex Submariner ref.5513. The watch is an L serial dating it to 1988, the second to last year of the 5513 production cycle. This piece is sold as watch only and comes fully linked.
This example of the 5513 has an overall condition that is very good for a 36 year old watch. Case is still sharp and some bevel along topside of the lugs is still apparent, coronet on the clasp is still completely raised. Overall we can see surface level scratches throughout with smaller micro-pits on the sides of the case. There is an angular ding on the underside of the left lug at 6 o’clock. The domed plexiglass crystal is in good shape with no significant marks to declare, some tiny scratches that likely could be buffed out with a little polywatch and some elbow grease. Bezel insert looking beautiful and glossy as ever while the pip at 12 remains intact with a slight patina. Overall I’d rate this a 7/10 condition.
Own a piece of history, one of the last years of production of the 5513 for only 12000$ + ship or F2F in MTL.
