Description

We always love discovering watches with a personal history—and this one comes from a passionate diver in Germany! This exceptional 5513 features a strong case paired with a beautifully faded dark grey insert that shows subtle hints of brown. It’s matched with a mirror-like gilt dial and warm yellow patina on the lume of the hour markers and hands. Absolutely stunning. These early black-dial Rolex watches feature what collectors refer to as "gilt dials." The text and outer minute track are printed in a gold tone—hence the term "gilt." In fact, the gold color is the brass dial base showing through, as the dials were printed with the text in relief. The case remains strong all around, with well-defined, even lugs and crown guards. In direct light, a touch of tropical brown emerges from the dial, adding to its vintage charm. The case back is engraved with "Günter Greie Kiel," the name of the original owner of this incredible Submariner. There’s also a fascinating link to this engraving: included in the sale is a photocopy of Günter’s diving pass from the 1960s. Born in the 1930s, Günter joined the "Diving Group Kiel, Germany" in 1964—one of the oldest diving clubs in the country. Notably, many members of the Federal Marine Corps were part of this club, and Kiel remains the home of the German Naval Defense Force headquarters. The watch is fitted with a Rolex reference 7205 riveted bracelet, with end links marked 64 and a clasp stamped 74. It has been fully serviced by our expert watchmaker and is running smoothly. The 5513 is truly the cornerstone of the iconic no-date Rolex Submariner line—and one of our all-time favorites here at Bulang and Sons, which is why we proudly founded the No Date Sub Club. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to discuss this remarkable piece further!

Time is Precious

Let’s find that watch you like

New / unworn
The watch has not been worn and is in new condition. It may come directly from an authorised dealer or the brand itself, or it may have been recently traded without being worn.
Pre-owned
The watch has previously been traded and may show light to visible signs of wear, depending on the stated condition.

The condition is determined by the seller based on visual inspection and functional assessment in accordance with Wristler guidelines.

New
Sourced directly from an authorised dealer or the brand. Unpolished and free from signs of wear. Delivered with full manufacturer’s warranty. The warranty period begins upon registration with the brand and may have already started prior to delivery to the final buyer.
Unworn
Previously traded but never worn. May qualify as New Old Stock (NOS). Free from visible signs of wear. Does not imply anything about remaining manufacturer’s warranty or the presence of factory stickers.
Very good
Minor signs of wear such as hairline marks or small surface scratches. Case, bezel, and bracelet retain sharp edges and overall form. May have been professionally polished without affecting the original contours. Fully functional mechanically.
Good
Visible signs of wear such as scratches, small dents, or light bracelet stretch. May have been professionally polished. Fully functional mechanically.
Fair
Clearly visible signs of wear, including scratches, dents, or noticeable bracelet or clasp wear. Servicing may be recommended in the future. Fully functional unless otherwise stated.

All watches offered on Wristler are fully functional and meet normal expectations for mechanical performance unless explicitly stated otherwise. The seller provides a guarantee on proper mechanical operation.

Water resistance cannot be guaranteed for older watches unless specifically indicated.

If you have any doubts about the condition, carefully review the photos and description. You may contact the seller via chat to request additional photos or video material to better assess the watch before purchase.

Manufacturer's warranty
The manufacturer offers a 5-year international warranty from the warranty activation date, transferable within that period. This date can differ from the year of production, so the remaining warranty depends on this specific watch; see its papers.
