Rolex Meters First Dial Submariner 5513

The Rolex Submariner is one of the most iconic watches of all time. This reference 5513 features a 1.58M serial number dating to circa 1967. It is paired with a Rolex C&I stretch rivet bracelet dating to 1966. This example features a “meters first” matte dial with extremely attractive tritium lume. It has been polished but is very attractive overall.
