In the world of our No Date Sub Club, the spotlight always falls on the Maxi dials. A true hallmark at Bulang and Sons, the Submariner 5513 with a Maxi dial is, in our eyes, one of the coolest and most versatile watches out there.

This example is a lovely Mk3 Maxi dial reference 5513, instantly defined by its oversized hour markers — so generously proportioned they nearly meet the minute track. A detail that makes this dial variant both distinctive and full of character.

On this watch, the hour plots and hands have aged to a rich beige tone, adding warmth and vintage charm. The case remains strong, with thick, even lugs, while the bezel has taken on a dark blue fade. The bracelet is an Oyster 93150 flip-lock in good condition, with a clasp stamped ‘VD’ and reference 580 end links. The watch has been fullyserviced by our watchmaker.

If there’s one watch we’ll always have a soft spot for, it’s the Submariner 5513. Let us know what you’re looking for — we’d be happy to help you find the perfect example.
