Fake sub???
Hey guys! Need your expertise here. Got my sub from my dad last year as a bday gift. Ref#5513 serial #4M. I always thought this sub is fake. Brought it to our local AD and have it sent to rolex service center. Anxously waiting, 2weeks after our AD called that the watch is ready for pick up. Got my watch back on a rolex watch bag. Does that mean my sub is authentic???

RSC won't service anything other than REAL rolexes. Post some pics, I'm sure the guys on here will be able to let you know for sure.

Mate, RSC would have contacted you in the first instance if your watch were anything but the real deal.
Now we need a few pics. Cheers |

If it came back from RSC, must be real. If you received a bag of parts (looks like a large hammer was used), then not real

Paid $1,100 to have it overhauled from inside out and had the face changed as well. But wheb Ibrought it to geary's at Beverly Hills one of the sales accosiate said that rolex doesnot change the dial unless they still have the specific part. Which in this case rolex does not produce 5513 dial anymore. Was my watch not serviced on a rolex service center???
Here's a pic |

I'm not on my computer right now. I'm using my phone. Lol I think I also got a warranty card and a small booklet about what they did when they are doing a service. Will post pic when I get to my computer.
