	The 5512 is the chronometer no-date Submariner and the watch that locks crown guards into the Submariner line. It runs alongside the 5513 for almost two decades but sits above it in the range, and it ends up the scarcer watch by a wide margin. The Rolex-commissioned Submariner book by Nicholas Foulkes puts total 5512 production at 17,338 units.

	Two-line dials show the 5512 before it settled into its four-line chronometer identity. A two-line gilt 5512 with early crown guards is a ~~fundamentally~~ different watch from a late four-line matte 5512.		Two-line dials show the 5512 before it settled into its four-line chronometer identity. A two-line gilt 5512 with early crown guards is a different watch entirely from a late four-line matte 5512.

	Crown guard shape drives value as hard as the dial does. Square-crown-guard examples from 1959 trade well above rounded-guard examples from the mid-1960s, even when both carry gilt dials.
