Rolex Submariner Reference 5508 Glossy Dial

The Rolex Submariner is one of the most iconic sports watches that was introduced in 1953. It is a model that represents the greatest attributes of the manufacturer. The reference 5508 began production in circa 1958 and lasted to 1962. It is also the last of the no-crown-guard Submariners. This is an insanely attractive example that dates to the tail end of the reference’s production in circa 1962. The glossy dial is very beautiful with warm-yellow lume. It also features the "exclamation point" at six o'clock. The case measures 38mm in diameter (48mm lug-to-lug). It has been lightly polished, but is strong.

The watch does not come with box and papers. The watch recently passed a water resistance text of 5 bar. We do not know the service history but it is running well.

For those looking for a special vintage Submariner, this is a an incredible option!
