Rolex 5513 Submariner SS Black Dial Circa. 1989 (5513)
Description
The Rolex 5513 Submariner stands as a paragon of vintage dive watches, tracing its origins back to 1962 and remaining in production for over 25 years. Housed in a robust 40mm stainless steel case with 93150 Oyster bracelet on a fliplock clasp, fitted with an acrylic crystal and the iconic rotating bezel, this reference epitomizes the golden era of tool watches. Its celebrated glossy black tritium dial delivers a timeless and legible look that has inspired generations of professional and civilian divers alike. Powered by the non-chronometer rated automatic Caliber 1530, the 5513 marked a subtle yet important distinction from its chronometer-certified sibling, the Ref. 5512. This model's uncluttered, two-line dial and domed acrylic crystal add enduring vintage character, while the absence of a date complication preserves perfect dial symmetry. Rated for 200 meters of water resistance, the 5513 offers robust performance in a clean, unde rstated form. Its history is further enriched by rare variants—such as COMEX, Explorer, or military-issued dials—coveted by top collectors. The 5513 endures as a touchstone among vintage Submariners, widely respected for its blend of reliability, aesthetic purity, and historic importance. (L serial circa 1989). Excellent Condition with Rolex box.
