Which are the more sought after No Crown Guards Submariners?
I know they're all sought after and I was wondering which of the No Crown Guards Subs were more sought after. Perhaps Mike and the other vintage experts and enthusiasts could put the 6200, 6204, 6205, 6536, 6536/1, 6538, 6538A, 5508 and 5510 in order of collectivity in their opinion? Thanks very much in advance.

I don't know there's a bad one in the bunch. LOL! I would probably look at the 6200 first and then perhaps the 5510. I would guess the 5508 would be the last of a very desirable group.

Thanks a lot, Mike. Where would a 6536 fit in? The reason I ask is that I may have the chance to buy one in excellent condition with what I think may be a service replacement dial.

In my view it near the top of the food chain. |

It is a matter of personal preference, but I would rather like to spend my hard earned money on a DRSD or Red 1680 than on any of the earliest Subs. They are simply too thin in case profile to my taste, and I don't care much for the milled bezel.

A 6200 was on my grail list until I saw one in the flesh and it just didn't do it for me and the 6536/8 would be the same. |
