Great thread.

Last weekend at auction i saw a 'red sub' go for £13,000 + 21% auction costs. I thought it was massively over bid on ... now i understand why the 'meters first' was highlighted in the lot description and hence the high cost. Really insightful information.

For that money it has to be spot on and original including all the extras with good providence.

I'd love a red sub as well but I'm a novice and have a long way before I feel I have enough knowledge to buy one.

I enjoy these post the best. They help when digging through watch parts, or hunting for goodies at a watch show.
