Another great piece added to the Red Sub TRF Family. Bryan, it is really nice. That dial looks 👌 and the ghost insert sets it so apart and makes that Red writing pop. Congrats!!!

Where do you guys find them so clean? Or do you have them serviced? These watches are insanely gorgeous. I'd like to get one but I don't even know where to start. The vintage market is scary!

Great watches guys, thanks for sharing

JJL, the vintage world may seem ominous at first, but it really is a small world. Often, finding a nice example is a waiting game. And when one comes up, being prepared to move quickly on it. Doing your Due Diligence is always necessary, so that way you are educated about what you want and know what is a fair price for the piece. But there is nothing like a good vintage piece hunt and find.

Additionally, you have many vintage lovers here on TRF that are willing to help.
