There is no such Rolex as a 5513 18k gold or a 5513 with a date window - as noted by the seller. The watch would have to be a 16618 Submariner if it is genuine. The listing is highly suspicious, and a "0" feedback seller.

Spot on John.......

This would appear to be a 1991 16618 and picture stolen from
http://www.watchestobuy.com/RolexSubmariner16618.htm.
Where on earth he got his description from, God only knows.

This scam is in the pipeline.
