Additional Informations: This Rolex Submariner with the distinctive reference 5512 (also known as the "Eagle Beak") was manufactured in 1959, according to its serial number, and perfectly embodies the golden era of Rolex tool watches. Its nickname, "Eagle Beak," refers to the prominent, pointed crown guards—a design feature found exclusively on Submariner models from this period, making it particularly desirable for collectors.
The robust stainless steel case houses a black-brown tropical gilt dial, adorned with radium hour markers and hands that ensured excellent legibility even in low light conditions at the time. The watch is powered by an in-house chronometer-certified Rolex movement, delivering precision and reliability at the highest level.
This early Submariner is not only a milestone in Rolex history but also a true icon for vintage watch enthusiasts.
