frankenstein 1513

"Vintage RARE 1959 ROLEX Submariner 5513 Gilt Dial"
"This watch has been recently serviced by an authorized Rolex dealer here in Louisville and was found to be in excellent working condition."
Also states 100% Rolex.

This is not a 1959. 5513 is in the 1963 and on.
The hands are do not go with the dial.
The bezel looks to be new aftermarket.
The watch is to old be serviced by an AD.
The crown is not from the 1960. The three dots are later on.
Now do not burn me at the stake if I am wrong.

BTW: Another brain teaser!

The watch is to old be serviced by an AD.At AD or RSC's discretion
The crown is not from the 1960. The three dots are later on.The old no dots crowns were often replaced by RSC's for new trip-locks during service

I'd like to know the AD who "serviced" it if i was gonna buy it so i could ask some questions!
