Highlights

We are proud to present this stunning Rolex Submariner ‘Comex’ watch for sale.

Founded in 1961 by Henri Germain Delauze, Compagnie Maritime d’Expertises – better known as COMEX – is a French deep-sea diving company that has done pioneering work in the field of robotics, saturation diving, and underwater exploration.

Rolex used COMEX as a test-bed for many of its dive watch technologies, and innovations such as the Helium Escape Valve found on the Rolex Sea-Dweller are a direct result of the collaborative partnership between these two brands. Rolex no longer supplies watches to COMEX, and since the partnership between these two brands helped shape dive watches as we know them today, consequently the various Rolex Submariner and Sea-Dweller watches that were issued to COMEX now rank among the most valuable and collectible Rolex models in existence.

This is the reference 5514, which is essentially a Submariner ref. 5513 that has been retrofitted with a helium gas escape valve. It comes set in a 40mm stainless steel Oyster case with a black bi-rotational bezel. The dial is a genuine Rolex service replacement and is a clean black colour with tritium luminous hour markers and hands (indicated by the Swiss-T<25 print), edged in white gold to prevent tarnishing. The dial is protected by a domed acrylic clexi-glass and the case is fitted with a screw-down crown and the unique H.E.V. (helium escape valve) at 9 o’clock. The watch is powered by a Rolex automatic movement calibre 1520, which is protected by a solid steel caseback with unique Comex engraving. The watch comes fitted on the iconic stainless steel Oyster bracelet (service replacement) with a folding clasp (original folded link bracelet included).

Originally from circa 1974 and in mint condition for its age, this Submariner comes with a Rolex service pouch and previous Rolex service paperwork. It is sold with a 12-month warranty from SWC and would be an incredible piece for any serious Rolex collection.
