Rolex James Bond 5508 submariner

The Rolex Submariner Reference 5508 is an icon and a legend. The 5508 Submariner is the purest representation of the diver's tool watch period. It has been nicknamed by the watch collector aficionado community as the "Small Crown" the reference 5508 and its easily distinguishable from other "no crown-guard" Submariner references due to 6mm screw-down crown which is much smaller than those outfitted to following models, including the "James Bond" versions made famous by Sean Connery who played James Bond in the 1960s.I am lucky to have found two 5508, one in gilt dial and the other in the later matt dial.
