Object description

Case and Dial Design

The Rolex Submariner 5513 is constructed with a stainless steel case that the auction description reports to be in an unpolished, untouched condition. This preservation is cited as maintaining the original sharpness of the case lines and edges. The timepiece is fitted with a rotating bezel, which incorporates a black insert marked with minute graduations.

The dial is specified as a glossy black type, featuring markers and hands that exhibit a pronounced pumpkin-colored patina resulting from the aging of the luminous material. The text printed on the dial includes the Rolex name, the "OYSTER PERPETUAL" label, the depth rating of "660ft=200m," and the "SWISS-T<25" designation at the bottom, indicating the use of tritium. The seller notes that any spots or reflections observed on the dial in the provided images are consequences of strobe lighting on the crystal rather than physical damage to the dial surface itself.
