I recently bought a parts package which included NOS or slightly used parts from varying models, years, etc. Included in this package are these Submariner hands. The package was mainly made up of bezels and links from the 70s and 80s and the gentleman who sold it had a storefront that sold Rolex during this time period.

They have been verified as original by a watchmaker that I know, but he was unsure of the exact model they are for. Can anyone help with additional information or the model these hands are made for?

These hands were most likely made for/fit a 5513, 5512, 1680, or 1665.

Does mean that handset is interchangeable between all of those models? Any idea what era (date range) they belong to?

Just the hour and minute hands are interchangeable.....sadly not the seconds hand.
