This Super Clone Rolex introduced ref. 5513 around 1962 and kept it in production for decades, making it one of the longest-running, most iconic Submariner references ever made. Early examples feature the glossy-dial look before Rolex transitioned the line to the later matte style, and that shift is a big part of what makes the 5513 so addictive to wear and own.
This earlier-style 5513 captures the vintage Sub at its best: a deep, glossy black dial and the correct “Long 5” bezel insert that can age into a beautiful grey/blue tone with real character. It’s the kind of Submariner that looks simple at first glance, then gets better the longer you stare—clean, tough, and instantly Rolex, with that old-school presence that modern watches can’t fake.
