Rolex, Oyster Perpetual, "Submariner", 660ft/200m, "Cigarette 1", Ref. 5513. Produced as a special order for the racing boat company "Cigarette 1" in the 1980's.Fine, center-seconds, self-winding, water-resistant, stainless steel gentleman's wristwatch with a stainless steel Oyster bracelet and special "Fliplock" clasp.
Each Cig customer recieved 1 Submariner as gift . Only 50 in the World

I've looked everywhere for one. Only found a few. One guy would sell but wanted a Solid Gold Presidential and $15k for it. I didn't want it that bad.

The thread you posted is very old and unfortunately the threadstarter is no longer with us.

Now in Italy , if you're lucky to find one in good condition , you can pay more or less € 20.000,00 more or less US$ 29.000 ; but I think it's super hard to find out one

Hello
Some people are asking me just that "Is it For Sale?"

The Rolex was a gift from my father, who has past away. I have never worn the watch and probably never will. It is in my Will to be past on to my boy.
Thanks for the interest.

I have one of the Cig Formex watches. Gets Lots of comments from it.

There are lots of folks that do custom bezels for the rolex. I have a nice Explorer I with the plain black face. I might look around and see who could do one. Simple silkscreen operation- probably wouldn't cost more than a couple hundred or so.

If you wanted to get nuts, you could do the whole oval across the face. Ex I has no date so there's a nice canvas to work with.

I found a watch store out in Ca. close to my home , he told me that because he is one of the only Formex dealers in Ca, he could get me the watch for about the same price that Cig wanted , maybe less. I love the Rolex, I gave up looking a long time ago and bought a GMTmaster II and a Explorer, I would love to add the Cig Rolex to my wrist, but way too much cash, gettin the Formex ,its big bad and its the way I can say CIGARETTE all the TIME.ok that did sound stupid.If anyone that did post on this thread have the Formex let me know if you have any issues with it. Thanks
