My only redsub - love it

A 3,1mill 1680 Red sub with 9315 bracelet, to the best of my knowledge never polished and hardly worn. Not the most expensive- or hard to find sub, but my keeper.

Thank you all for nice comments, I have searched for a long time before I found it. there are only two watches I seldom use and this is one of them. This beauty will stay in the family.

That's a really nice example with a folder over bracelet you have there.. Many of us have this watch on our lists, in my case, my wallet seems to get stuck in my back pocket whenever I think about buying one...

Enjoy your watch, I certainly hope you wear that particular beauty every day...

nice one, congrats - but why spend ages finding it and then hardly wear it?
They are pretty durable you know, and it's already lasted 40 years!
