Our Experts Debate Over A Pair Of High Quality Rolex Submariner Ref. 5513S Fake Watches UK

And now for something completely different … Ok, maybe it isn’t completely different. After all, the Vintage Team is still bringing a drop of nearly 20 fresh vintage AAA UK Rolex replica watches to the Shop. Nothing will change about our selection, of course; click through to find Heuers, Datejusts, Vulcain Crickets, and the rest. That said, the Vintage Journal could use a bit of a refresh once in a while. Rather than the standard three picks from the team, this week is all about choice – choice within 1980s Rolex Submariners.

The Crown’s switch from matte to modern glossy dials is one of the most important differentiators in the Submariner’s nearly 70-year run. The matte dial had the longest stay within the ref. 5513, but it was eventually phased out in favor of the first modern glossy dial Submariners, around 1984. The examples immediately before and after this switch are becoming more collectible by the day, as are 1980s perfect fake Rolex sports watches, in general. As our collection features both a 1982 “maxi” matte dial as well as a 1989 white gold surrounds, glossy dialed ref. 5513, we figured it was time to pit our team’s experts against one another.

Rich, a purist at heart, argues for the warm and fuzzy feeling that only a matte Submariner can bring to your wrist and Saori takes the more forward-thinking stance. Where do you side? If an ’80s no-date Sub is what you’re after, do you take the road less traveled and go with a glossy dial or stick with Rich and the “real” vintage collectors? Don’t care about Rolex or Subs? 17 other Swiss made Rolex replica watches await your attention in the Vintage Watches section of the Shop.

1982 Rolex Submariner Ref. 5513 Replica Watches With ‘Maxi’ Dial

With vintage Swiss movements fake Rolex watches, I always come back to the Explorer ref. 1016. It is my watch of choice most days and the only vintage piece from the Crown currently in my watch box. So why am I talking about the Explorer in an article supposedly all about Submariners? The early 1980s 5513 shares everything I love about my Explorer and is upgraded in all of the areas I find the 1016 to be slightly lacking. Without a date or an unnecessary, to my non-underwater and non-AARP card-carrying eyes, “cyclops” crystal, I have always preferred the simple look of a 5513. With a more substantial case and the accuracy of a Rolex caliber made in the 1980s, there are creature comforts and ease of wear points here that my Explorer just does not score.

When I say always, I am talking about early episodes of Talking Watches like John Mayer, Matt Jacobson, and Morgan King, the ones that engage with “real” vintage cheap Rolex replica watches culture. This was before I was really on Instagram, a different world. The Submariners presented to me and countless others in those “classic HODINKEE” years? That’s right, they had matte dials. There is something so 2014, New York City, leather gloves and a set of vintage Porsche keys in a lifestyle photo about a good matte-dialed Sub.

That feeling cannot be replicated by a more modern example for me. Once the white gold surrounds hit the dial, somehow a portion of what makes best copy Rolex Submariner watches a Submariner was lost. Even when a late-’80s or -’90s gloss dial has some patina to the tritium lume, it almost feels out of place. There are pros – many pros – to these watches, and I completely understand why our customers continually request them. But give me the matte dial every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

The replica Rolex watches for sale we have this week is what is known as a Mark IV “Maxi” dial which is characterized by the “Submariner” branding above the depth rating and the specific font for the “S” in Submariner having a more aggressive-looking “zig-zag” appearance. I know the nerdy details of vintage Rolex dials are not for everybody but, hey, they are for me. The variation and scholarship are just not on the same level for more modern Submariners. Check out all of the Submariners in the Shop, but make sure this one sells before Saori’s example does so I can say I won.

1989 Rolex Submariner Ref. 5513 Fake Watches

I used to think luxury Rolex Submariner replica watches with the white gold surrounds was not a vintage Sub. For me, a vintage Sub has always been the early gilt/glossy dials or the matte dial version that followed. I think that ideal has been true for most vintage enthusiasts for a long time. But then, when you think about the passage of time, it’s also true that Rolex super clone watches wholesale store from the 1980s and early 1990s are creeping up to be considered as “vintage,” as well. It’s the preconceived notion that was holding me back from embracing this variant for a long time. But now that I have opened up my mind, I’m starting to like it even more than the matte dial version – perhaps because it also aligns with my liking for glossy dials of the early days, without breaking the bank.

This piece from 1989 (L serial) is truly at the tail-end of the near-30-year run of ref. 5513 production, making it the last of the long-running reference. The first thing that stands out is the glossy dial, of course. Let’s admit, it doesn’t have the unmistakable patina of the early glossy dials. Some may say it’s colder-looking than the softer matte dial variants, but I actually find the glossiness on this modern-ish Sub inviting. The smooth black surface makes the dial look extra black and with more depth compared to the slightly rougher texture of the matte dial, which has the tendency to age in a more dusty blackboard black. The biggest part which I was not a fan of, originally, were the so-called “white gold surrounds.” The silver-colored frame around the lume for the hour makers used to throw me off. I recently realized that it wasn’t really because of the frame around the hour markers. It was because of the combination of the often whiter lume color and the silver color of the frame that stood out against the deep black color of the dial. The stark color difference was just too much for me. Lately, I’ve noticed that the white lume color from this era is starting to age beautifully, as well. In many of the examples, the lume color is turning into that signature aged light custard color which feels more authentic.

Combined with the traditional robust 1:1 top fake Rolex Submariner watches case, a workhorse automatic movement, and an Oyster bracelet, it comes together neatly at the cusp of vintage and modern; a proud family member of a true classic. I feel this glossy dial variant is a respectable ode to the original glossy dials from the early 1960s, and also a proper send-off to conclude the reference with a design like the one we have here.

AAA UK Fake Rolex Watches Were One Of The Highest Appreciating Assets In The Last Decade

Luxury Rolex replica watches have been the “it” alternative investment these past couple of years, with names like Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe and F.P.Journe making headlines for their insane surge in price. One Swiss manufacturer, however, has always been the king in terms of consistent appreciation — and it’s none other than Rolex.

While many are most likely going to point out that Rolex was the obvious answer, new data has arrived showing just how lucrative holding on to 1:1 UK Rolex fake watches over the last decade has been. Compiling 10 years of sales data, Bob’s Watches has revealed just how much Rolex has appreciated, and which models have been hits — even when factoring high quality replica Rolex watches’ steady price increase and inflation, Rolex has outperformed major asset classes like real estate, stocks, and gold on average.

Looking at 10 years worth of sales data, the market average sale for a pre-owned best Rolex copy watches has gone from less than $5,000 USD in 2011 to more than $13,000 USD in 2021. What’s even more interesting is that in the past years, due to the pandemic, perfect Rolex super clone watches prices have shot up nearly equal to that of the total price increase that was observed in the previous five years.

With all models spread out, we see that every model has appreciated in some degree or another, reaching all-time highs. On the lower end of the spectrum, models like the Air-King and Cellini have grown a modest amount while the top wholesale replica Rolex Daytona, Day-Date, and Sky-Dweller watches have exploded in price — the Sky-Dweller, which was only just introduced in 2012, has more than doubled in a shorter time, but the Daytona on average is well above at the no.1 spot having more than tripled in value in the last 10 years with an average pre-owned price of more than $30,000 USD.

So, how to the different references all stack up? Over the last 10 years, the 16610 Submariner has by far been the best-selling Rolex fake watches shop on Bob’s Watches whereas its two-tone steel and gold sibling 16613 ranks in at no.2. The functional six-digit GMT Master II 116710 comes in at third.

Other interesting findings from the “Top 15 Pre-Owned Rolex Models Sold” list include:

– 8 of the 15 best-sellers were sports watches.

– The Lady-Datejust took three spots in the top 15 list (stainless and 18k gold).

– The Milgauss is still very much in demand.

As the report points out, there are no future guarantees that this rate of growth will continue, especially the doubling or tripling of certain references, but there is just something rather impressive and special when it comes to 2022 replica Rolex watches. It is one of those rare assets where it actually appreciates over time, even when being enjoyed.
