I'm selling my 1988 L-series 5513 to make room for a recent acquisition.
All pictures available here. Please excuse the dust!
Dial:
- Original gloss dial with no spidering or visible imperfections
- White gold-surrounded tritium plots have developed a beautiful vanilla patina
- Hands are original and match the patina of the plots and bezel pearl
Bracelet:
- 93150 bracelet with 580 end links
- Very minimal stretch
- Service clasp stamped Z11
Movement:
- Rolex 1570 movement is a workhorse and was overhauled by a Rolex Service Center in 2012. The watch was subsequently stored and not used again until late 2017.
- Movement was tested recently and passed with flying colors (see image of test result)
Case:
- Case was polished at last service (2012)
- Chamfered edges still visible
- Tritium bezel pearl
- New period-correct replacement crystal purchased from Michael Young was installed in February 2018
- Passed a pressure test at 5ATM, meaning the case and crystal seal well (see image of test result)
This watch will ship with:
- Original Rolex Submariner presentation and outer box
- RSC service certificate from 2012
- Green RSC service pouch
- Original Rolex service crystal and timing/pressure test print out
- Watch appraisal by Jewelers On Time in Newport Beach, CA (see image). The appraisal might help with getting it insured. I'll share the underacted version to the buyer.
Asking USD 7,500. Payment through wire transfer or PayPal with references (+3%). Ships insured at my expense. Plenty of references available.
