You have the eyes of an eagle.
These dials seem to also be radial. Three color silver white and gilt.
The other special aspect is the strange hammer head crown guards.
No underline. But clearly Rolex wanted to show in 1963 that they moved to t<25. It seems there are only a handful of these.

Awesome photo! :)
Hm, makes me think I should wear a Rolex this weekend...! ;) Best Blomman
Perfectly matching dial and insert
The 5513 is the workhorse of the Submariner kingdom. There is no doubt this watch has enjoyed a good life. HAGWE Bill
Easy enough for me...
as this is my only one :) New to me so glue to the wrist - week and weekend! Feels great to be back in the Rolex gang. Love your picture Jeff! Sunrise or -set? Nikolaj ...
I put it through my latest invention....
The Blomman Watch Makeover 2014 (TM). Here is a pic of an early prototype... As you can see the process is very simple and stream-lined: a true STP (Straight Through Processing). You enter your old watch in the direction of the arrows. Out on the other si...
Going deep into the sea...
I really love this piece and find it very pleasant to wear everyday. It's large and heavy, but I feel it receives too many complaints about it's size and the interior "ring lock", which I like very much. Any way to each his own! Jeff ...
Looks like you have a brother a few post up
The 5513 is a powerhouse of a watch. Enjoy the weekend. Bill
Experimenting 1665 with Nato
A virgin at this so I need a BBQ Ribs to go with it ... ;-) ...
A virgin who starts with a 1665!
First, welcome to PuristSPro! If you don't mind me saying, congratulations on your first posting. To start off with a 1665....it bodes very well!! Best, Joe
Thanks Baron, I have been a lurker here ...
Started of with an UAE 6694 in my vintage bug (that watch is long gone) HAGWE!
Glad to see you lurk no more....
.....when you get a chance, take a full-on scan of that 1665...as a lurker, you will know I have a thing for 1665s!!
Virgin status
Joe- his virgin status is deceiving. He is an 'old fox' of the Rolex world. He knows a heck of a lot of more about Rolex than me for example. Especially Rolex boxes :) Best Edmond
Compliment it was
After all I didn't say sly fox ;) Welcome to Purist Pro my friend C. Pleasure to see you here. Best Edmond
Rolex 1675 gilt Swiss T<25 to start.
But I will be missing it up all weekend. Bill ...
For the day time Rolex 5513 with a twist.
Just a simple release valve. Sorry about the peeling skin got sunburnt the other week. Gotta put on more sun screen. Bill ...
This was my first Sub and hence my moniker :-) Still a cool watch
Old pix - F1xxxxx ...
How I understand
Thank you for chiming in. Mine is also a F series/ mk1. In my opinion a real charmer and a head turner with a relatively short production run. Best regards
Fat & Flat
Can get much better than that ;) Among you Hard core - Die hard with vengeance Rolex guys :) it´ll sound lame but LV is one of best subs for me and long time love Glad you joined us LV to many more post not only on Rolex forum Sincerely Damjan
You are making me regret to have let mine go...
It was such a cool modern iteration! Best, Nicolas
Sorry to hear
Me think it is the best recent Sub, when they come without the writing on the rehaut. Those early Kermits are still relatively easy to get. I know, I know my friend, you have a looooooong list.
+1. The earlier without the Rolex writings on the rehaut are the most desirable.
As for the wish list, it is like blood, the more you have the better it is. Vlad. ...
Honeycomb and SYL today…...
Love the faded fuchsia insert on your GMT!!!! HAGWE Atin ...
OMG thats so beautiful
Now why dont they make it like this anymore. Simplicity and class at its best Iceman
Thx for the kind remarks Iceman….
Charm of 50s Rolex is a world apart from that of their current lineup :-)
Gorgeous example.
You can\'t say more but they don\'t make them like this any more. Bill
Merci, Danke, Ta, XieXie, Tak, Thanks for warm welcome my fellow enthusiasts
Well I have been active in other forums and always a lurker on others. Will look forward to have more presence here ;-)
5513 with some miam patina...
Simply perfect for the weekend... and so many other occasions ! ...
The weekend is almost over. A special Rolex 1675.
Take a guess. Sorry about all the salt on the watch. I am on the ocean after all. ...
Wow, a double swiss gilt 1675 or ......
Should I say double swiss and t<25 !!!! Very rare and nice catch Bill! Can't tell from pic but is there an underline also? Best Atin
