Question on 5512 submariner

Would like to know if jubilee bracelet was an option on this model. Also what years was it available?

You’ll have a better chance of an answer by posting in the vintage section.

If put on my a dealer when new at point of sale. The consumer stepping up and paying a premium for a chronometer version of the 5513 would likely have preferred the more purposeful (for diving) oyster bracelet.

But to each their own!

The Sub 5512, great reference.

First Sub to have the crown guards, released in ~1959 into the mid 70's.

Early 60's, 4 liners with pointed crown guards are the hot ones.

Jubilee wasn't an "option", but back then a Dealer would put any bracelet or strap that you wanted on your watch.

Not a factory option, but could be a local/AD option. Things were different back in the day, before the Rolex Police stepped in.

In any event, it’s an awesome combo (and yes, it kills me that I chose to sell this)

Sold my 5512 too about five years ago to fund another piece (a 1680 Red). It had a great case and a perfect patina dial. I know you're not supposed to have regrets, but...

It kills me reading that!

I absolutely love my 14060M but a Submariner like this would be the ultimate, end all, top of the mountain, supreme, unrivaled watch!!!
