Sell Your Rolex Submariner 126613LB in Los Angeles
Bring your two-tone Rolex Bluesy to the South Bay's most trusted luxury watch buyer. Since 1980, South Bay Coin has paid same-day cash for Rolex Submariner watches, with free private appraisals from a licensed, NAWCC member team.
The Best Place to Sell a Submariner 126613LB in Los Angeles
The smartest way to sell your Rolex Submariner 126613LB in Los Angeles is through a licensed buyer that resells luxury watches to collectors rather than flipping them wholesale. South Bay Coin has operated from the same Lawndale storefront since 1980, and our appraisal team holds memberships with the NAWCC, IWJG, JBT, and GIA. When your Bluesy crosses our counter, it is evaluated by specialists who buy and sell Rolex sport models every week.
Unlike a pawn shop that treats a two-tone Submariner as loan collateral, South Bay Coin operates a resale platform for luxury timepieces. The 126613LB is one of the most requested references among our collector clients, so we can pay for its full collector value instead of a quick-flip wholesale number. That difference is why sellers from Torrance, Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach, and across the South Bay drive to our showroom instead of shipping their watch to a stranger.
Every appraisal is free, private, and pressure-free. We inspect your watch in front of you, explain exactly how we arrived at the offer, and pay cash or check on the spot if you accept. Whether you are selling a single Bluesy, an entire collection, or another model entirely, you can sell a Rolex watch of any reference here and get the same straight answers we have given Los Angeles for more than 45 years.

How We Value the Two-Tone Rolex Bluesy
The 126613LB is the current-generation Submariner Date in yellow Rolesor, a combination of Oystersteel and 18k yellow gold. Introduced in 2020, it carries a 41mm case, a blue Cerachrom ceramic bezel, a matching blue dial with white text, and the caliber 3235 movement with a 70-hour power reserve. Our appraisers confirm the reference between the lugs, read the serial number, and separate the 126613LB from the black-dial 126613LN and the earlier 40mm 116613LB, which used gold dial text.
From there, the offer comes down to condition and completeness. A full set with the original box, warranty card, hang tags, and factory stickers earns the strongest number because collectors pay a premium for complete kits. We also weigh case sharpness, bezel condition, bracelet stretch, service history, and whether the watch runs within specification. Because the Bluesy sells faster than the vast majority of watches on the secondary market, demand for this reference stays consistently strong.
Even a heavily worn example holds real value. The solid 18k gold in the bezel, crown, center links, and clasp gives every two-tone Submariner a meaningful floor, and our in-house refinery means nothing about your watch is guesswork. You watch the entire inspection, and we explain each factor before we make an offer.

We evaluate your 126613LB on current secondary market demand, overall condition, service history, and whether the original box, papers, and warranty card are present. Because the Bluesy sells quickly to collectors, we price it as a resale piece, not scrap gold. Our appraiser explains every factor in front of you before making an offer.
LB stands for lunette bleu, French for blue bezel. The 126613LB pairs a blue Cerachrom ceramic bezel with a matching blue dial on a 41mm yellow Rolesor case of Oystersteel and 18k yellow gold. Collectors call this configuration the Bluesy, and it is one of the most recognizable two-tone Rolex watches ever made.
Yes. We buy the Submariner 126613LB with or without the original box, papers, and warranty card. A complete set typically earns a stronger offer because collectors prefer full kits, but our appraisers authenticate the watch itself using its serial number, movement, and case details, so missing paperwork never disqualifies your Bluesy.
Yes. We buy the 126613LB in every condition, from unworn full sets with factory stickers to daily-worn examples with scratches, stretched bracelets, or movements that need service. Condition affects the offer, but a two-tone Submariner always holds significant value because of its gold content and strong collector demand in Los Angeles.
Yes. Bluesy is the collector nickname for the two-tone Submariner Date with a blue dial and blue bezel. The 126613LB is the current generation, introduced in 2020 with a 41mm case and the caliber 3235 movement. Earlier Bluesy references include the 116613LB, the 16613LB, and the original 16803 from 1984.
Most watch transactions finish in about 15 to 20 minutes. Our appraiser inspects your 126613LB in front of you, verifies authenticity, checks the reference and serial numbers, and presents a written offer. If you accept, you leave with cash or a check the same visit. Bring a valid photo ID.

With more than 45 years of experience and NAWCC membership, we authenticate every Rolex on site while you watch the entire process.
Selling locally means your Submariner never leaves your sight, you receive payment the same day, and there is no shipping or insurance risk.
