Rolex Submariner

Cal.1530 Rivet bracelet 7206/FF64 Clasp 60.3 Back cover 59.3
Accessories: Main unit only
SOLD OUT!!
We have restocked! If you are looking for this item, please consider purchasing it.

As a successor to the Ref. 6536-1 with a 6mm crown
We have just received the "Ref. 5508" released in 1958 , so we'd like to introduce it to you right away!

This model is the ultimate guardless submariner with a water resistance of 100m.
This is the third generation Submariner, produced until around 1962.

Speaking of guardless, the brass bezel and slim case are attractive.
The vintage colour is more pronounced which makes it look super cool!

This is a comparison photo with Dr. Ito's favorite camera, the Ref. 5513 Mirror.

The 5508 also features a small case size of approximately 38mm.

The bezel insert and dial size are the same,
It's interesting how the impression changes completely depending on whether there is a bezel or not!

Of course, when we talk about dials from this era, we think of mirror dials!!

The mirror dial has a beautiful shine and is attractive with its mirror-like shine.
It also features a gold painted logo and minute circle.

The gold lettering is one level lower and looks great in person.
It's a beautiful dial that captures the delicacy that only vintage models can offer!

Although the dial of the watch shown here has deteriorated over time,
The luster is brilliant and for an individual of this age,
This is a mirror dial that is in excellent condition!

Moreover, depending on the angle , you can see the color of the brown change.
It has a tropical dial .

Although it is a little spotty, most of the dial has turned brown.
It's a specimen with an outstanding atmosphere.

The index luminous material has discolored,
It's in excellent condition with no visible chips.

The needle luminous has been corrected,
The colors match and the atmosphere is not compromised at all.

The brown aged Long 5 insert on this one is incredibly cool.

Because it has aged exquisitely,
The glossy finish of the mirror really stands out and it looks really cool.
I can't handle it.

The condition is age-appropriate with some scratches,
There are no major scratches and the condition is good.

The case condition is particularly good.
This is a very impressive case that doesn't look too thin!

A rivet bracelet is essential for a watch of this age!!

The buckle clasp is from 3rd period 1960.

The rivet bracelet has natural wrinkles that match the age of the watch.
It is very sturdy.

Finally, a wrist shot!
This is bad!!
This is the coolest product ever!!

The final guardless Submariner "Ref. 5508/59"
This is a recommended Guardless Submariner with an attractive glossy tropical mirror that allows you to enjoy the aging process over time.
It's rare to come across a Ref. 5508 with such a great atmosphere.
The real thing is a pretty cool one!!
For customers looking for a core vintage Submariner,
Please consider this.
