When the Submariner ref. 5512 became the chronometer-certified Submariner option, Rolex introduced the non-certified Submariner ref. 5513 shortly after in the early 1960s to be sold alongside it. Naturally, because it is not COSC-certified, Submariner ref. 5513 models are two-liner Submariner watches.
The earliest Submariner ref. 5513 examples were equipped with glossy dials with gilt text. These examples are Meters First Submariners. Around 1969, Rolex made the switch to matte black dials for the Submariner ref. 5513. There is where it gets tricky though because, during this period, there are examples of matte dial Meters First Submariners ref. 5513 and matte dial Feet First Submariner ref. 5513 models. Rolex eventually began exclusively producing matte dial Feet First Submariner 5513 versions in the early 1970s.
Since the Submariner 5513 was in production until the late 1980s, it is much more difficult to find a Meters First Submariner 5513 today than its feet first counterpart.
