Welcome to the forum

You need to be more specific with your question. You can look at our For Sale forum and searche the model. There is a huge year of production to take into account.

Welcome.

Era and condition are everthing in valuation. Can you narrow it down.

Condition and year is everything so it's impossible to give an accurate estimate, however a good condition 5513 "feet first" (that's usually from early '70s as until late 60's there was the "meters first") with its original bracelet can be found for about 3500-4000 Euros here in europe. About the same for a similar age/conditions 1675. You need not to be in a hurry to find a good deal.

Thank you so much for your response.Does that mean than a 5513 from the 60"s will automaticly be meter first?or is there a 5513 model from the 60"s with the feet first as well?Is there a big difference price between a 5513 meter first and a 5513 feet first?
I rather have meter first.
Thanks for your advise

It is impossible to guestimate value without exact pictures so we can see the dial. On these watches the dials vary and can change the value of the watch by more than double! For example--a matte dial vs. a gilt dial..Meters first or feet first dial etc. Go to Vintage Rolex Forum and select Dial archive. Also--In vintage watch--complete with documentation vs. no accessories will drastically change value--again up to a double.

I too have been hunting for he perfect 5512 or 5513. The pricing does vary quite a bit but the good news is that there are a lot of 5513's for sale out there. A lot! So have fun shopping around there are a lot of comparables at all price points.

bracelet band for sub 5513 late 60"s "original or not"

Hello every one and first of all happy holidays.
I am looking for to buy a sub 5513 late 60"s (meter first will be great!!) and i was wondering if someone could tell me which was the original band at the time (late 60's) for this model.
Also how many different bands were made for this model 5513 and if you have pics to be able to identify them you will make my day
Thank you for your comments and sorry for my poor English.

pito, if you read some of the threads relating to 5513's you will pick up a lot of information yourself.

Speaking from experience, I'd also scrub round the notion of 'must have' a metres first. I made the same mistake and probably passed on some feet first that were in fact in better and / or more original condition.

I ended up with a '67 metres first which I love, but I realised pretty quickly that I would have loved it just as much if I'd been a little more open minded and included the feet first models in my search.

Anyway, until you get to the maxi dials some 10 years or so later, you really can't tell them apart at a quick glance, so if I were you I'd take your time, and consider pretty much any matt dial from about 66/67 through to the last maxi's in the early 80's - and just buy on originality / provenance / condition, in that order.

They are addictive. I just got a nice vintage 1970 one (my avatar). It has original box, receipt, etc.
