Display Back for Vintage Sub Case?

[bbell6]

I recall seeing Display Backs for the modern Rolex subs on ebay about a year ago (nothing currently). Does anyone know if these are available for the vintage 5513 or Sea Dweller cases (and where to find them)?

Thanks

Rolex never produced any watches with dispaly backs on them. This is purely and aftermarket item that is often found on cheap fake rolex watches. I would suggest that you avoid this product.

Actually, Rolex did produce a display caseback for the GMT back in 1961. Very rare item.

Also, there is a watchmaker in Germany that sells display backs.

Here is the link:

And thanks for the thread... I've been meaning to order one from this guy. I'll order one today before I forget!

I realize Rolex produced very few display backs, but I'm not trying to be accurate in this instance. Just looking for a good quality display back for a project that includes a MBW case.
