Vanessa Redgrave and the luxury replica Rolex Submariner Reference 5513

Posted on by

English acting icon Vanessa Redgrave attracted some watch collecting interest when she wore a perfect fake Rolex Reference 5513 Submariner in the 1966 film Blowup. Redgrave wore the Submariner on a leather strap instead of its stainless steel Oyster bracelet. And over the sleeve of her shirt.
You might be wondering why am I bringing up this timepiece now, 55 years later. Firstly, a Swiss made replica Rolex was an interesting choice for the lead actress to wear in a 1960s film. Secondly, the watch’s whereabouts are unknown. And thirdly, the super clone watch was “hiding” one very special detail publicly unknown until now.

A small few 1:1 replica Rolex Reference 5513 Submariners were fitted with what has become known as an “Explorer dial.” Instead of the usual baton and round markers for the hours on a stock cheap copy Rolex Submariner dial, the markers here were replaced with solely baton style markings and Arabic numerals at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock in addition to the usual triangular reference marker at 12 o’clock.
This type of dial was usually fitted to the AAA fake Rolex Explorer model, hence its nickname.

After looking through several photographs of Redgrave on the set of Blowup, one in particular caught my eye. It captured Redgrave during a discussion with director Michelangelo Antonioni, showing a clear view of the Rolex Submariner replica for sale on her wrist.

And I realized that she was wearing a high quality fake Rolex Submariner with a rare “Explorer” dial! Zooming in revealed the Arabic numerals 9 and 3 standing out clearly along with the baton markers against the black dial.

Considering that Redgrave was already famous at the time, if this dial been noticed earlier the super clone watch might have been coined the “Vanessa Redgrave.”

And then the auction catalogues would have described it as an aaa quality fake Rolex Submariner with a rare “Vanessa Redgrave dial,” which in my opinion sounds way cooler.

This Collector Bought a UK Perfect Fake Rolex Submariner ‘Hulk’ Every Year It Was Made

Still kicking yourself for having missed out on the luxury replica Rolex Submariner “Hulk”? Well, you’re in luck because Bonhams is here to save the day.

Later this week, the auction house will begin offering a private collection of the Swiss watchmaker’s emerald-colored divers. Each Swiss made fake Rolex UK comes in “unworn” condition and there will be one example available from every year that it was made.

Hulk is the nickname given to the cheap fake Rolex Submariner, reference 116610LV. One glance at the timepiece and it’s easy to see why. There are three distinct features that earned the dive watch its playful moniker among collectors: its green Cerachrom bezel, the emerald green dial and a chunky “Super” case. If there’s a watch out there that looks like old Jade Jaws, this is it. 1:1 replica Rolex sold the watch between 2010 and 2020, and this single-owner collection includes one example from each of those 11 years. All of the watches come with original boxes and papers.
“We are excited to offer unworn examples of the AAA quality fake Rolex Hulk in a sale concept not seen before, allowing collectors to get their hands on what can only be described as discontinued but new replica watches for sale,” Nate Borgelt, head of Bonhams Watches America, said in a statement. “In the current market, where obtainability and condition are king, these Hulks check all the boxes for discerning collectors and daily wearers alike.”

Looking for something truly heroic to display alongside the watch? The auction also includes a hyper-detailed, 1:4 scale statue of the Green Goliath by NMK Studios. The hand-painted model is number 24 of 40, stands two-and-a-half-feet tall when positioned in its base—a fun complement to a pretty serious Hulk collection.
Bonham’s Swiss movement replica Rolex Hulk auction will run online from Friday, August 12, to Monday, August 22. The auction house has a placed a $40,000 to $60,000 estimate on the earliest example, a $35,000 to $50,000 estimate on the second and third copy watches for sale and a $30,000 to $40,000 estimate on the rest. The statue, meanwhile, is expected to fetch between $2,000 and $3,000.
