Icon7 My first Red Sub

Hi guys,
Just got this amazing red sub from Mark Lerman . It is a 1970, Mark IV dial with a great patina and a nicely faded insert. It is a 2,7 mm serial and came with the punched guarantee.
Mark is a 100% guy. Had the opportunity to meet him. He is such a nice gentleman and provided me with a lot of info about the reds.
Here is a picture of my new baby.
