The Submariner is one of Rolex's most iconic models. Still in production today, it has gone through multiple incarnations throughout its 65 years history. While early generation examples notably had either a "small" or "big" crown, Rolex gradually introduced crown guards in the mid-1960s to make the model more robust and durable.

Introduced in 1955, reference 6536/1 replaced reference 6536 and remained in production until 1959. Today, it is one of the most sought-after vintage Submariner references due to its design and modern proportions.

Preserved in stunning and exceptional condition, this reference 6536/1 is an incredibly original and exceedingly well-preserved example. It seems that the watch has spent its life securely stored away from the ocean and worn less than occasionally. Boasting thick bevels, a robust case and strong proportions, it is evident that this timepiece has very little, if any intervention throughout its lifetime. The dial is preserved in equally excellent and impressive condition. Mirror-like and incredibly glossy, it is a sight to behold and remains completely original, despite its age. Even the red-tipped triangle retains its luminous pearl, and is another spectacular feature on this watch. All other details are correct, such as the riveted bracelet with "Big Logo", stamped for 1959.
