On Monday 19th January 2009, Fellows & Sons in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter will be auctioning a Vintage Rolex Submariner, model number 5513 with movement calibre 1530.

Launched in 1962 and produced through to June 1990 the Rolex Submariner 5513 model is one of the longest continually produced references in Rolex history.  The 1500 series of movements are thought to be one of the best ever created by the luxury brand.  Not to mention saving 007 and Solitaire from certain death in the Bond film ‘Live and Let Die’, it is no wonder that the 5513 model is considered one of the most collectible Submariners.  The Rolex Submariner is in the auction at Lot 138 with an estimate of £900-£1,400.

Also featuring in this auction is one of the rarest watches ever made by Rolex, a gentleman’s Rolex Prince Brancard circa 1931.   The Rolex Prince is in the auction at Lot 142 and comes with the original box.  It is estimated at £5,000 – £8,000.
