automatico Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 "Sweet snag! My elderly eyes tell me this is a very early Paul's Abay watch. What a piece of history! Carzy Sale!" "Agreed haven't seen one of those prototype bracelets in years!" Y'all will have to quit calling me a junk man if these things ever become Collector Items. I have about half a dozen of 'em, 5514 and SD, 729 case backs, 'Prototype' bracelets, and 'working' HEV. All NOS with new swisseta 2836 as delivered back then. 'Working' HEV = it might work to let water out. Anyway, the valves are made just like genuine, I bought a genuine set to compare them. NOS... Have a couple nos 'River' SDs too, same motor. They were hot back then. Also a steel automatic Alain Silberstein Arkitek. How many of them have you seen lately? Is there really any such thing as a nos replica? I must be Carzy too! Btw...they ain't for sale. I have a 'collection'. Just now looked at a date dial and it says: COMEX 2000 ft = 610m (2000 ft/610m from the boat dock) SCOC Lookie, Lookie... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-5513-Submariner-With-7206-Prototype-Bracelet-Box-Original-Bill-Anchor-/221920434323?hash=item33ab7d1893%3Ag%3Az0oAAOSwA4dWKQ-S&nma=true&si=e9R%252BvWtIe0ergFp1SLi99gslhT0%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 L o n g address.

Nanuq Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 sweetness! I had one of these and it drove me crazy (carzy?) because every time I went for a mtn bike ride the crystal would fog up. The real, genuine construction HEV was a surprise when I first opened it up. Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted March 24, 2018 Report Share Posted March 24, 2018 One of my first reps was the DRSD from Paul- working HE valve and that bracelet- with a Swiss eta and only $139 shipped to the USA. That was 2006 as I recall. Still have the bracelet, but off loaded the case at some point. The Swiss eta is in a 16660 that I built- it has the silver datewheel to boot with the open 6/9s.
