Rolex 5512 caseback “NOT PATENTED”
What’s up guys just purchased a 5513 but the case back is a 5512 which I know was a common swap but it does not say “patented” as others I’ve seen.
I know it’s a legit case back can anyone share some feedback on this particular case back scenario ? Thanks guys |

What year was your watch made? After around 1979 Rolex lost their patent and the "patented" dropped off the caseback and they switched from "registered design" to "original Rolex design" between the lugs.
