2010-12-14T09:26:00.001-08:00

We have just acquired an ultra rare Rolex Submariner from the original owner. Ref 6205, Brevet Case, original black lacquer dial. Always been serviced. Circa 1954. Designed by Jacques Cousteau in collaboration with Rolex. A no-name Submariner at the time due to a trademark infringement over the name "Submariner". This Rolex is more rare than the one sold on Ebay last week for $66,100.

Vintage Rolex's

2010-08-20T15:00:00.000-07:00

The Houston Gold Exchange has been buying and selling Rolex's for over 31 years. The vintage market has come alive in the past few years, especially with Rolex Sport Watches.

Here we have two:

On the left we have a 1983 Rolex Submariner Model 5513 on a military NATO Strap. The Model 5513 is the first with the crown guard. This Rolex has been partially restored. Still has its original bezel inlay and dial. The hands are new due to the original hands were heavily pitted and the luminescence was completely gone. Priced at $5,500.00

On the right we have a 1971 Rolex GMT Master with the red & blue bezel known as the Pepsi Bezel. This GMT has a beautiful original riveted Oyster Bracelet. The dial has a nice patina finish from age, along with the original bezel. This watch has not been restored. It's been cleaned and inspected and ready to go into someone's watch collection. Priced at $10,500.00

Both Rolex's have been verified for authenticity and do not come with box or papers. Included is a 3 year warranty that covers the movement of the watch. Not a bad deal for a vintage Rolex!
