The Red Sub is on my wrist>>>>>>>

Below are the first camera phone shots of the new Red Sub...I plan on taking LOTS more tonight when I get home... :D :D :D

The markers aren't as crispy white as I would have hoped for, but it's in darn good shape! :gut:

Here's it is next to the watch I was wearing before it arrived:

Initial thoughts: I won't lie - it's a bit of a let down. I was hoping to fall in love with it, but it definitely isn't love at first sight. At this point, I love the watch more for what it represents and its rarity, than I do as a piece I'm attracted to and will want to wear. The problem is, I got a VERY good deal on this watch, and could profit greatly if I sold it....so the temptation is great. I'm not going to make any quick decisions....the next step is to get it polished and cleaned up a bit.

nice dail and inlay

but the band has a little bit of strech. :D But just a little bit :D

Nice John, even with the little colored indexes. This is what we cold vintage..... ;)

Congratulations for this rare RedSub. :gut:

It is true, its condition may not be the best, but you show very well in your explanations that you knew what you were doing when you purchased this watch. ;)

Let me put it this way: it's a face only a mother could love :D But if the price is right, why not?

Top! :gut:
