Lot Essay

The present watch is distinguished by its attractive dial displaying a brown discolouration and the very good original overall condition.
Launched in 1958, reference 5508 was an upgraded version of reference 6536/1, depth rated to 100 meters (330 ft.), the case without crown guards and the newly designed bezel with divisions for the first fifteen minutes, larger silver triangle and luminous bubble. The dial featured the gilt printed "Submariner" and came both with and without the white printed depth rating.
