Submariner red

Just out of curiosity, I keep hearing that the Submariner with the red lettering is very rare to get and expensive. Why is this? I do love the red lettering.



Which Rolex is the rarest and why?

Good Day
Ken

High demand, limited quality and looks spectacular! Nothing new is quite like a clean vintage red sub.

Try to find the best example you can! The Red Sub is one of my treasured favorites!

There are plenty of Rolex watches which are very hard to find but no one wants the red Submariner is not one of those
