The long-selling model "Ref.5513" with a production period of approximately 27 years

Various minor changes were made,
This model has a wide variety of dial variations.

The model we are introducing this time is one of the earliest matte borderless dials!

"Meter First"
The mirror dial has been replaced with a matte dial that reduces light reflection.
This is the earliest matte dial, produced from 1967 to 1970.

A distinctive feature of this watch is that the water resistance rating at the 6 o'clock position starts at 200m, which is why it is commonly referred to as "meter first."

All matte dial Ref. 5513s except for this dial are feet first.

The dial condition of this watch is excellent.
It is in good condition even when viewed through a magnifying glass.
This model was manufactured around 1969 and is in this condition, making it rare.

The index luminous material also has an exquisite aging effect, giving it a nice atmosphere.

It is a tasteful dial that appears to have a slight brown tint.

The luminous minute hand is a little dark, but there is some nice rust on the needle.
This is a watch that allows you to enjoy the aging process that is unique to vintage models.

If you look closely, you can see a small chip on the MK3 insert.
It has faded nicely and looks great!

*Corrections have been made to the luminous properties of the luminous points.

The condition is good with some wear and tear, scratches and the case has a slightly polished feel.

Since it is a vintage model,
There are some scratches and the case is thin, but strangely enough the atmosphere is not marred.

It is also equipped with a rivet bracelet that gives it a vintage feel.

The clasp is engraved with the first period of 68.

There is a natural wrinkle,

It fits perfectly on your wrist!
If you look closely, you'll see that the slightly brown dial gives this watch a great look!


The popular vintage Submariner "Ref.5513/69/Meter First"
This is a highly recommended watch with an attractive dial that is in exceptionally good condition.
It's surprisingly difficult to find a meter-first model like this one, with parts that are generally consistent .
This is a very attractive piece, so please take a look at it!
This item will be on sale after maintenance is completed.
Customers looking for the original Ref.5513/rimless dial,
Thank you for your consideration.
