It went through numerous alterations before arriving at the noteworthy references 5512 and 5513, produced from 1959 and 1962 respectively.
The popularity of pre-crown guard Submariners has surged in recent years, thanks in no small part to their presence in the James Bond films 'Dr. No' and 'Goldfinger'.
