Red Sub has arrived

Just received my Red Sub today from one of our most trusted sellers. And she sure is a beauty! I just love the look and I can't wait to wear it once I fiddle with the bracelet sizing. I've definitely caught the vintage bug!

The hole after the lume pip fell off, has probably just been filled with luminous material. Seen it at some occasions. I would use a real pip instead.

Nothing has been filled in at all. It is a "pip" in the hole.
