I’m putting up my 1967 Submariner Ref. 5513 as I have an opportunity to pick-up a birth year 5512. If it’s meant to be, someone gets a really great deal & watch, and I get a cool birth year for my collection - a win/win! (If not, I certainly don't feel bad about keeping this one.) This is a piece I purchased originally from Adam at Menta Watches a few years ago. It was authenticated by Adam and several knowledgeable Rolex collector & dealer friends. All is proper for a 1967 Submariner Ref. 5513. - Matte Meters First Dial - “Long 5” Insert - Original Crown - Original Crystal - SN 1600XXX - Bracelet is period correct C+I Rivet dated ‘65. Cal.1520 movement was fully serviced by Adam’s watchmaker when I purchased it and runs great. After service timed out at +/- 4 s/d at 247 amplitude & 19800 bps. Pic below. Concretively, condition is above average. Overall it is a very attractive, correct and honest example. A great, wearable piece for someone looking for an iconic 5513 vintage Submariner at a price that offers instant equity. What to be aware of: No papers, no box. Probably a light polish in past. I cannot be 100% certain hand lume being all original (or not). Hands do not fluoresce under ultraviolet, which could be indicative of "dead lume" known from this timeframe for Rolex -OR- being color corrected to match dial. **To be safe, I will call them color corrected as to not mislead/upset anyone. Bracelet when set to longest point measures 6-3/4 long - spring bar -to- spring bar. I’m told market is around $11K - $11.5K +/- based on like condition and hands, . I’m hoping to sell this fast to make the 5512 purchase work. With that, I’m only asking $9,600 for a quick, no hassle sale and based on condition. - Was $10,000 – Reduced to $9,600! - Payment via Wire, Zelle or Cash (F2F). - Shipping within U.S. only. Shipping is included in price. - Shipped via UPS or FEDEX via ParcelPro fully insured. I have many references here and elsewhere. https://omegaforums.net/search/25802623/?q=bristnj&o=date&c[node]=10 F2F in NJ, NYC or Central/Eastern PA possible. Note: Apologies for no movement shot, I don’t have a Rolex case back opener, and it’s been closed since it was serviced by Menta Watches. Based on verifications when I purchased, I 100% stand behind authenticity and correctness with money back guarantee. Please feel free to ask any questions. As always, thanks for looking! Thanks! Jeff
TGIF! - I still have an opportunity to make the sale of this for the purchase of that work. Reducing to $9700!! Not sure there is a better deal out there for an honest & serviced 5513!
Hows about $9,600 for a vintage, serviced, Ref. 5513 - Yes, $9,600.....I'm serious! Funds are going towards the 5512 birth year piece. So, someone OF family member gets a crazy deal on a really nice piece!
For those following with win/win saga, here is the 5512! Buyer of the 5513 and this seller could not be happier!
