Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we have a rare mirror dial Submariner/5513.

Rolex Submariner Underline
Ref.5513 Serial.99 series (manufactured around 1964)
Cal.1530 Rivet bracelet 7206/FF80 63.4 Back cover 63.3
Accessories: Main unit only
Retail price: 7,777,000 yen (tax included)

The fourth-generation Submariner "Ref. 5513" is a long-selling model with a production period of approximately 27 years.

This model was developed around 1963 as a Diffusion model that was not chronometer certified, as opposed to the chronometer-equipped "Ref. 5512".

This model has undergone various minor changes and is extremely popular among vintage Rolexes, but the one we have in stock this time is an early production model.
It has a glossy finish known as a "mirror dial."

"Mirror Dial"

A glossy dial was available on models manufactured up until around 1967.
Among the vintage models that have a beautiful mirror-like shine,
This is a rare dial with extremely limited availability.

The stepped gold lettering and minute lines are also features of the mirror dial. It is a dial with a refined beauty that is different from current Rolexes!

"Underline"

If you look closely at this mirror dial , you will notice a thin "━" called an underline under the SUBMARINER inscription .

It is said that this dial is one of the early adopters of tritium and indicates that radioactive materials are below the prescribed standard.

It's interesting that in some cases this underline appears under the word OYSTER PERPETUAL.

The dials we have received this time are consistent,
There are small scratches and slight deterioration due to aging,
The luster is still there and the condition of the mirror dial is as follows:
It is in pretty good condition!!

Check it out!!
This is a truly shiny mirror dial! The shine is top-notch!

Many underlined mirror dials inevitably deteriorate, so a watch in such pristine condition is definitely rare!

The luminous material is all tritium. The minute hand is missing some luminous material,
The atmosphere hasn't been compromised at all!

The luminous index is also in very good condition!

The bezel insert is equipped with a long 5 insert!
This long 5 insert looks great on the mirror dial!

Pointed crown guard (PCG)
The crown guard, also known as the "crown guard," is a characteristic of this era!

The condition is that there are scratches from use,
The case and bracelet are sturdy and well made.

The middle case is thick and not overly finished.

A rivet bracelet is an essential feature for a model of this age!

The buckle is engraved with the 4th period of 63.

The bracelet has natural wear over time, but
It's a bracelet that matches the era.

Wrist shot!
Wow. So cool. I want it.
This is a masterpiece that will make you feel this way!!
