Rolex Submariner Red "Double Reference 6536/6538" - PRICE ON REQUEST

The Rolex Submariner needs no introduction. It is the ultimate dive watch, the undisputed reference in the segment, first released in 1953 with an initial water resistance of 100 meters, constantly evolving to reach 300 meters today. It is the watch worn by James Bond in Dr. No and many other films from the franchise. It is inseparable from this legendary character and countless others who have worn it.

The piece we are offering is a very special model in many ways. First, it belongs to the earliest Submariner references, which feature no crown guards. Additionally, it is a transition reference, bearing the rare characteristic of having two reference numbers: one on the case and another on the case back. This places it precisely between two evolving references: the 6536 and the 6538, the latter being famously known as the "Big Crown".

Beyond its dual reference, this watch boasts a stunning gilt glossy dial in pristine condition. The touch of red, a detail highly cherished by Rolex enthusiasts, is the very first instance of red text on a Rolex dive watch, an element Rolex has reserved for only a few select models.

To top it all off, the riveted-link Oyster bracelet is its original bracelet, stamped with the "53" hallmark. All these details make this watch an absolute masterpiece of beauty and rarity—a true collector’s gem for the most discerning enthusiasts!

As with all our watches, this one comes with a 3-year warranty.
