Rolex 5513


My first Rolex Submariner. Ever since the first day I walk in to world of watch collection, my first choice is a Rolex sub. After many years of waiting and opportunities I manage to acquire my first Rolex 5513. This watch is fixed with a solid wire bars. Case back dated this watch to be made in the 1960s (Case Back dated 1V.67) with a case serial number: 176XXXX. The movement used is calibre 1520.

Reading off some info from a magazine, rolex 5513 housed the movement calibre 1520 or 1530. Production is dated from 1964~1989. I hope someone can tell me which series of the rolex house the different movement. There are two different type of dial variations too, one with the "200m" shown first and the other with the "660ft" show first. What the different? I would find out more, it be a great if you happens to read this and tell me this piece of info.
