1960 Submariner Long 5 Bezel Question
Good Sunday morning Gentlemen,
Would someone be so kind as to explain what is the difference between a long 5 bezel versus a standard bezel used in a 5513 1960 - 1966 Submariner. I’ve looked at multiple pictures and not sure I get it. Thank you! |

It is the shape of the negative (black) space inside the loop of the 5, rectangular vs. square. At least that's how I distinguish them.

It's best to compare using clear straight-on photos. Pics that are taken at an angle sometimes obscure the shape.

Everything you wanted to know about Submariner inserts but were afraid to ask...
