I have a latest obsession with early Submariners, especially the small crown ones. Cannot argue that the Big Crown is fantastic. It has great presence on the wrist. But there's something charming about small crown Submariner. Thinner case with smaller cro...  

.....i remember you telling me that you had a soft spot for the small crowns......you are right....elegant and charming...yet still sporty

Indeed.. I still find it very fascinating.. And hopefully looking for a 6536/1 next. Thank you for your kind word my friend!

What a dial! Yes, I think you are right with the production year of the 5508 4 lines. Bravo. Nicolas

I was looking for a slightly unusual variant, like the 4 line.. And to find one with such dial really is a bonus.. Thanks again for your kind word and support!

congratulations. What a beautiful watch , the 4 lines in different colors let alone the wonderful brown dial. What a trophy watch you have! I agree with you on small crowns - they have something elegant that big crowns don't have. best Edmond

I'm always inspired of small crown from pictures of your collection and your love for small crown. And I really enjoyed your educational posts on them. I'm hoping to be able to find a nice example of 6536/1 like yours.. Cheers Sam

A lot of charm. Great tropical. Enjoy. Bill

And it made me confident since you mentioned great things about this watch.. Thanks again Sam

very rare indeed ...  

A 4 line 5508 is always nice to see and hardly available in the market Cheers Sam

Hello, What a beautiful 5508 ! Could you please tell me which endlinks are on this bracelet? Or just take a picture of the back case (with the bracelet). I'm looking for new endlinks for my 5508 and those seems to be a perfect fit. Thanks

I believe a correct one would be 64 end link with 7206 or 6636 bracelet. But an 80 end link would also be fine.. On the picture it was on 80 end link and 7206 bracelet, but I've recently found a nice 64 end link with stretch 6636 bracelet. Hope this helps...
