5513mattedial.com - Great 5513 Website
A new website has just been created:
http://www.5513mattedial.com/ It has everything you always wanted to know about the Rolex 5513 Submariner. There is every fine detail on this watch you didn't even realise existed. Definitely worth a serious and detailed look Great photos too, worth looking at just for the photos!!!!!

fantastic site.
So this is a huge undertaking. The level of effort; pictures, content, research, site creation, and hosting. This is a ton of work and the end result is extremely professional. Thank you for putting it together as a resource for the WIS community. Hats off! |

Thank you everyone for the kind words and warm reception.
I have been wanting to make a contribution to the Rolex collecting community that would be a valuable resource and stand the test of time. A big thank you to Marcello, jedly, and Tomvox for the gracious input that allowed the project to see its completion. In addition a big thank you as well to bluemartinifan for his editing skills and to those that contributed pictures. Enjoy

Hi Beaumont! this is a SUPERB website, and EXACTLY what I would have loved getting into the field of vintage subs! I spent well over a year learning at best 15% of what you posted, the hard way. :)
As a consideration for future growth, any chance you may be able to consider cataloguing bezel inserts, and bracelet/endlink configurations as well? cheers, Mark |
