Great looking watch!
The ref.5513 is what I call a "sleeper" model
is largely ignored by the buying public.

Those in the know, would appreciate this beauty
for the historical value of the 660ft / 200m script
underneath the Submariner name.

If the 660ft / 200m was printed in red,this is
the watch that all serious collectors should be looking for.

This timepiece in my opinion,with
the white script are still reasonably affordable
at the moment. I could only speculate that
prices would soon increase.

Speaking of movies, Robert De Niro wore a similar
5513 in the 1978 film The Deer Hunter. During the
filming of the Russian Roulette scene, there's a
18kt Rolex GMT on the table.

Cheers,
Simon
