1981 Vintage Rolex Submariner 5513 MK III Maxi Dial with Box and Booklets

Sold

“Japanese Pawnshop Find ”


Occasionally special pieces are found in small towns in far off places. This particular watch was collecting dust in a pawnshop in rural Japan. And while the story is interesting the watch itself is magical.

The case appears to be unpolished and the mark 3 lollipop dial is spectacular. The luminous material on the dial have a halo of orange around them that matches the luminous material of the hands. The original bracelet is sharp and has very little wear from age. The watch is almost a full set but unfortunately is missing the original guarantee papers.
