First Owner 1967 Rolex 5513 Submariner. Stunning Meters 1st Dial.

For your consideration is this awesome vintage 1967 Rolex Submariner 5513.
Serial: 16XXXXX

Dial: Stunning meters first dial. One of the best preserved ones I've ever seen on one of these. The dial is near flawless with the most mesmerizing patina ever.
Hands: Original Rolex Tritium hands matching the dial perfectly.
Case: This watch was purchase from an estate or a Vietnam Vet. As you can see, the case shows "Battle scars". Looks like it might have been polished at some point. Lugs are nice & thick. Reference & serial numbers are legible. (Please refer to pictures).
Bezel & Insert: Original bezel with original "Long 5" fat font insert.
Bracelet: None. (Head only).
Movement: Original Cal 1520 is running and keeping excellent time. There is no known service history.
Accessories: None.

Notes: This watch came to me from the estate of the original owner who (as I am told) was a Vietnam Vet. Please refer to a picture of the watch as it was when I received it with the plexiglass all scratched up, and the dial was barely visible through the glass. I have only polished the Plexi.
In my opinion, this meters first 5513 has one of the nicest dials currently on offer anywhere.

Asking price: (WATCH IS SOLD) $16,000.00 net to me which will include worldwide shipping.
Payment by wire or PayPal (Buyer covers fees).

Located in Los Angeles.

Thanks OF for the space!

Nice watch. GLWS.
But since you bought it from someone it is not a one or 1st owner watch.

Well it has been improved for the sale, the crystal has been polished. Also Estate sales are no guarantee of one person ownership IMNSHO.
It sounds like the hyperbole we are getting everywhere else.
Still a nice watch.
