The Red Sub is an important piece for vintage Rolex fans, seen as a key piece in a serious collection. However important these watches are viewed by collectors, we simply love them for that red line and cool-tool vibe that they exude. And as we have been saying, finding really great vintage is getting harder and so investing in great quality pieces makes a lot of sense in the current market.

This example has a Mk4 dial, with crisp red text and extra nice slight cream toned lume on the hour plots.
The hands are decent match with the hours too.
The case is strong with even lugs and the crown guards.

The bezel insert has faded to a cool dark grey hue, with the original pearl that has been refilled with lume.
The folded link Oyster bracelet, ref 9315, is in excellent condition and has reference 380 endlinks and a clasp stamped ‘A’. The bracelet also features the endlinks and a stamped “PATETED” clasp.
The watch has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.
