cousin_hub Posted May 19, 2015 Report Posted May 19, 2015 Hi allIt seems that the factories don't produce any vintage models any more. (the last one was the ST19 Daytona ) I remember that in a period there had been Submariner 5513 and 1680 or GMT 1675. It looks like they bet only on the modern versions for some time.What do you think guys ? Is there a hope for new versions of vintages Rolex OOTB ? Thanks for yours answers

Thanks for yours answers You maybe right in your assumption. I was looking for a vintage 1016 and 5513 and there is nothing available from our trusted dealers, as far as I could see. Certainly, proces for second hand and modded vingate Rollies are going to go up.
alligoat Posted May 19, 2015 Report Posted May 19, 2015 I just got a 5513 (3-6-9 dial) with the stubby crown guards from Josh- it's actually a very nice watch. I like the bracelet, dial, bezel insert and the dg2813 is keeping good time. I'll start working on it when I get back from vacation in a couple of weeks. Trim the cg's and put a smaller crown in there.
ceejay Posted May 19, 2015 Report Posted May 19, 2015 Pretty sure the 1675 & 1655 are still available.
Mendota Explorer Posted May 20, 2015 Report Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) So are the 1680 and 6263. After some follow-up over on another board, it sounds like the point of this thread is we have so many options with out of box modern pieces but not with vintages. There are revisions after revisions put out for modern pieces, for example. Edited May 20, 2015 by Mendota Explorer 1

Vinguru Posted May 26, 2015 Report Posted May 26, 2015 Pretty sure the 1675 & 1655 are still available. True, i'm sourcing a 1675 from josh. Already had qc pics of the watch.
cousin_hub Posted March 6, 2016 Author Report Posted March 6, 2016 Could someone put some pictures of the new batch of Cartel 5513 and 1680 ?
