The Rolex Submariner is one of those best replica watches that truly deserves the iconic title. It remains the benchmark for dive watches and is a truly exceptional Rolex worthy of the title. In the rich history of the Submariner, there are a considerable number of exceptional models, often made for a limited time or in very low numbers, and this reference 5513 “Mizen” is one of them.
The model 5513 is one of the most desired models by many collectors. It was introduced in 1962 when the Submariner was a tool watch and not associated with a luxury lifestyle as it is today. It has a very simple and functional design with a 39mm diameter case and a crown guard to protect the crown from impacts. While most reference 5513s are equipped with a dial featuring regular hour markers, this particular model has a so-called explorer dial. It references another famous Rolex model in which the 3, 6, and 9 are Arabic numerals. 
It becomes even more unique because there is a small dot underneath the six. In the 1960s, the rules around the use of radium were tightened and with this dot, one could be sure that this Rolex was less radioactive. These types of dials are aptly nicknamed “exclamation point” dials. All things considered, is this a very rare Submariner, also because it is one of the first watches to reference the 5513. Since it is a tool watch and was often used as such, it is rare to see such a rare older version of a fake Rolex in such excellent condition. The fact that this watch even has its original Oyster bracelet adds to its appeal. These watches are now highly collectible as a result and have completely transitioned from being tool watches to becoming undeniable luxury items.
