Looks like something cobbled together from parts.

Some definite problems I agree. I can see a few problems, vintage sub experts like Greg and others can probably see many more

Acording to the seller, The case serial number is 198103.
Even if he forgot a digit at the end, the serial number cannot correspond to 1962. Very fishy |

Looks like a 14060 and they placed hands with patina to make it look older.

I have never seen a 1960's 5513 model with "Submariner at the top" inscription.
In addition, I have never seen a Submariner at the top" dial with "meter" first. Lastly, the hands are replacement hands. |
