Closed the deal on this little lovely yesterday, and it's now in transit via US Registered/Insured.....My very first Double Red Sea-Dweller!!!! Here's a seller pic:

It's a watch-only deal on this '72 Mark III DRSD - no accessories. But it was a deal I couldn't pass up on acquiring one of these rare beauties. And I've had so much fun from the three Red Submariner restoration projects I've done in the past, I figured even if I don't keep this one, it will be a similar experience. It appears to be in very similar condition to past Red Subs I've had - I'll need to shine it up a bit, replace the plexiglass, possibly replace the crown. I'd LOVE to find a tritium pearl to put in the bezel insert. But that may be difficult.

I'm hoping to have it by Wed./Thursday of next week. Then the restoration work begins!!

I would not change glass nor polish the case. Just exchange the bracelet,
does not seem the original on this pic and search for a TR dot. That's all!!
