Is this a real late '60 5513?

http://www.ebay.it/itm/ROLEX-SUBMARI...item23282717c7

Should it have a 9315 bracelet? I cant judge if it has pointed crown guards as well.
Thanks for any help.

Serial is 2.3 so no 1960 but later. And no PCG as well.

The 9315 bracelet would be an appropriate bracelet for a late 1960's Submariner. The 93150 bracelet was released during the mid-1970's which would not be original for this watch. From my experience, you will see many early Subs wearing the 93150 bracelet. It does not seem to be a major issue with collectors due to the value of both bracelets being relatively the same if in average to above average condition - although a period correct 9315 bracelet in excellent condition for a specific Submariner will usually be a couple hundred dollars more than a comparable 93150 bracelet.

My 5513 is 2.4 million and it's a 1969 if that helps .

He has it listed as a 1969 now not 1960 . Did it get changed ? They didn't have pointed crown guards then . It was one of the first ft first dials.

Maybe the original listing said 'Late 60' when he meant 'Late 60s'?

My fault: I wrote late '60 instead of late 60s. Yes, it is listed as 1969.

The seller confirmed, with some roughness of manners, the wrong bracelet type.

It should be a folded link bracelet 9315 with 280 endlinks I believe , if you get it I'm sure you could sell the bracelet and get a 9315 or maybe trade for 1. I personally don't think it's that big of a deal . You see so many now with no bracelet on a nato for sale .
But that bezel dot is so white it would drive me crazy . I'd try to find an older one. But that's just me .
