Dating to roughly 1967, this example shows thick creamy lume plots with a 'Mercedes' handset showing matching tritium - its bezel, just beginning to show that ghosty charcoal fade. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhile the word 'iconic' is wildly overused these days - the Submariner deserves the moniker more than any other. Fitted on a rivet bracelet with a big logo clasp, this 5513 is a serious example for any Submariner collector. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Reference 5513 is arguably one of the most desirable examples of Submariner out there. Produced from 1962 until 1989, the Reference 5513 is probably the longest-running model of Rolex ever. Following on the heels of the 5512, the 5513 was the second reference of Sub to feature crown guards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHowever, due to the 5512’s relative rarity on the collector’s circuit, it’s the 5513 that has come to typify vintage no-date Subs in the minds of collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eLong viewed by collectors as the purest expression of Submariner, the 5513 is the last great no-date Sub. Although Rolex still makes Submariners without dates, the 5513 retains the smaller diameter (39mm) case and slimmer proportions that distinguish vintage Submariners from modern.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rolex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31306146250839,"sku":null,"price":26000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/products\/cult_11.jpg?v=1583509758","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/rolex-submariner-5513-as03468","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
