1978 Rolex Submariner Maxi Mk1 Ref. 5512
The Rolex Submariner 5512 with Maxi dial is actually very hard to find at all. For Submariner collectors it is one of the last very interesting and rare pieces and it has only been produced for over a year in 1977/1978. But when it comes with an unpolished case and with a absolute mint dial then it becomes really really hard. The beauty of this watch.
