Description:Great Tritium R-series Submariner Plexi 5513
The case is in a wonderful vintage condition. Certainly to describe as unpolished, with not 100% certainty, it shows full, even lugs, a clean edge and a very good matt finish on the top of the case. There are signs of wear, but all in all a great case and if we look at the crown guard, we can, as mentioned above, speak of unpolished.
The Tritium Submariner dial is in great condition with no weaknesses. It shows full gilt, no broken top coat (spider web) and the lume material has aged into a nice creamy color.
The hands are also tritium and in very good condition. The patina may be a shade lighter than the dial, but that is absolutely invisible in nature.
The bezel is sharp with slight signs of wear and the MK4 inlay is in a vintage condition that matches the watch. Incidentally, an MK4 inlay fits perfectly with a 5513 from 1987. Ergo, it should be the original inlay for the watch.
The 93150 Oyster bracelet is in top condition. Little signs of wear and almost no stretch make it perfectly wearable. The clasp code is CX10 (Random, i.e. manufactured from 2011) and so the bracelet has been attached to the watch later.
Conclusion: perfect to wear, top quality and a fine vintage look.
