First of all,excuse me if I write in english but my written french is very poor.It's a lot of time that I follow this forum but it's the first time I write
on it.
This message is an answer to a post made by William Massena (02/01/2003) about 5513 made for Comex :
1) 5513 with valve made for Comex are real : it's a lot of time that I collect
and study Comex watches ( by the way after Rolex Geneva and Comex Marseilles
I have probably the biggest record with around 250 case numbers matched with
their delivery numbers and around 700 scans of every details like backs, valves,
machines,dials...................);
2) untill the first half of 2001 I got from Rolex Geneva written confirmations
about Comex watches : some of them are around 5513 made for Comex at the begin=
ning of the '70 ; in these faxes Geneva confirmed that the given case number and
reference matched with the delivery number given . These documents (my requests and their answers are still in the Rolex records ,as in mine.
3) however is not very easy to make a fake Comex 5513 : I receive every week
from all around the world 2-3 detailed sets of pictures with fakes of various
qualities (most of them are very poor and by the way are related to 5514 ).
For example here are some things difficult to do for a faker :
a) the original furrows between the lugs on both sides of the case ;
b) the original types used by Rolex for numbers and letters between the lugs
(made in different ways through the years);
c) engravings in the outside of the backs (maybe the most difficult things to
fake), that are also differents for every batch and reference ;
4) dials.
If you want to see some pictures and works about Comex watches, go to this web
site I have helped to do:
