Gilt Four Liner

Offered here is a beautiful example of the iconic 5512 Submariner with gilt dial from 1964. The difference to the 5513 was an upgraded Chronometer Certified movement for the 5512 reference, it was the 'higher grade' Submariner at the time.

To mark this enhancement the dial features an additional print marking the certification on the dial. In the case of this very version, the additional print was done in silver. The Four Liner gilt dials are very rare and popular to collectors as they mark the rarity on the dial. The rarity of 5512s compared to 5513s was much higher and there are not many nice examples around today. This very example is retained in beautiful collectors grade condition with a strong case showing beautiful and wide beveling on the lugs which collectors love. The case has been lightly polished in the past but remains strong and in honest condition. The bi-directional bezel is equally sharp and holds a faded gun metal grey insert with matching pearl.

The dial is a stunner with its fully retained mirror gloss. Further the graphics on the dial have aged from the gilt color to a very dark copper color, something we have not seen very often. The lume plots are rich, puffy and almost perfectly retained. They are matching the lume on the steel hands. The bracelet is a very nice and tight 7206 extendable Rivit Oyster.

Overall a very rare and exceptional example of a 5512 Gilt Submariner for the sophisticated collector.
