The term "chronometer grade" would be a more accurate description of the 562. Keep in mind that just because the movement wasn't sent in for certification, it doesn't mean that it cannot perform within COSC specs.
The Rolex Submariner 14060M (no date) with the cal. 3130 is not a certified chronometer but it keeps as good or better time as it's brothers.
I don't know about the older vintage models but I believe now the watch can only be marked with the word "chronometer" only if it went through COSC.
