Icon20 Newbie to the Forum Requests Help My 1st Submariner:5513 ? Authentication Help !

Hi Guys,

Long term Google searcher of RF but was yet to join until today.
I feel I have entered a world of like minded lovers of Rolex and many further hours of study and review await me.

Been a small time collector of Rolex's since 18 years Old and a passion for all things Rolex since a child.

Watches I currently own
1.SS Date Just White metal Bezel 16220
2.SS Oyster Precision 6426
3.SS Oyster Precision 6294 (Roulette Date)
4.Pink Gold / SS Oyster (Golden Egg) 6334
5.SS/Yellow Metal Mid Size Date Just (Wife's)

Having been experiencing urges to get into the Rolex Sports watch arena and particularly Vintage Submariners.

Am asking for your kind advice on the validation of this piece enclosed in the pictures. Unfortunatly the pictures are of very poor quality, even the Red light from the camera makes the seconds hand look Red (Nice thought though) similar to the MOD's I have seen on RF. Image 1

However I believe ?? its is a pretty standard Sub 5513 With the Guilt Edged markers from around 1983 or 84.

Need advice on if this is a true to original watch, I know that the watch has had a new Serv Glass however I am confused at the Markings

IMAGE 2
ORIG ROLEX DESIGN ? ( I thought 5513's were Registered Design ?)
5513

Over polished Case is also a concern ?

I am in the middle of purchase of this piece however at this time I am unable to get any further pictures.....Damn! Your help will allow me to make a feedback will help me to continue in purchase....

I would appreciate any advice you guys could provide me to reassure me that this is a worthwhile to add to my collection and embarking into Rolex Sports Watch Territory.

Your Kind thoughts would be greatly appreciated and questions welcomed.

Best regards

JC

would be great to tap into the network and hope to be a regular to the Forum from now on ( Addiction is kicking in) haha
