Very cool. I bought my red sub from the original owner 5 years ago; he knows the paperwork is somewhere around his house. Just waiting for the call..........…................................... .....

Love that GMT. What a great surprise to receive the boxes and paperwork. I have a 16750 in the 67X serial range, not original like your beauty.

Same thing happened to me. My dealer thought the guy I bought it from had the paperwork. Lucky for me he forgot to give it to him and he had it. Bought that same exact watch twice so won’t let it go again
