    Hi guys,

    I have for sale a full set L serial Rolex Submariner 5513 in great conditions, with a strong case, a beautiful dial and original lume.
    Serial dates back to 1989 and the watch was sold in Spain in 1990.
    This is the last generation of Rolex Submariner 5513 before it was discontinued (L series is the last year of production of reference 5513 before it changes to 14060 with sapphire crystal and new movement), it's the most sought after 5513 with the transitional gloss dial with white gold surrounds and it comes with a fantastic full set.

    CASE:
    The case is even and thick, lightly polished.
    Serial and reference number are fully visible.
    Original 5513 caseback (correctly stamped 5512 as every WG 5513's caseback should be).

    BEZEL INSERT:
    Original Rolex Mk4 insert in mint conditions.

    DIAL:
    The dial is an original "white gold surrounds" with light patina even on all plots and all lettering is clearly visible and correct.
    The hands are tritium and match perfectly to the dial.
    Tritium is original and was checked with UVA light.

    BRACELET:
    The bracelet is the original 93150 with 580 endings in very good conditions, and also the clasp is original to the watch and the code (0) matches the year of the serial.

    MOVEMENT:
    Correct 1520 caliber running well.
    The movement was serviced less than 2 years ago according to the previous owner.

    SET:
    The watch comes with an extreme full set: original Rolex box and outer box, original Rolex booklets (Your Rolex Oyster and Submariner booklets from 1989). original Rolex Guarantee, Rolex Guarantee holder, Rolex calendar.

    Asking 11500 Euro, insured shipping included.
    I am not interested in any trade.

    Payment method - I will accept Paypal and bank wire.

    Plenty of international references.

    Amazing that all your watches are "even and thick and lightly polished"! How do you continue to find them in the exact same great condition? Spectacular!

    Thank you!
    Well, actually if you do check carefully my listings you'll find also some unpolished stuff!
    Jokes apart, I pay great attention (and good money) to all the watches that I buy and anything more than "lightly polished" unfortunately isn't good enough for me.
    Not only I am a patina/flawless dial freak but also a fat case one.
    My OCD screams "Conditions, conditions, conditions!".
