Advice sought for first-time use of a 10-year old Sub

Last night my father in law generously gave my husband a Sub for his birthday. He in turn had received it as a gift several years ago, but had never, ever worn it before. He just kept it in his safe.

The Sub is new in the box, with papers, stickers and tags still attached, etc. The warranty card states that the watch was made in 1998.

Are there any mechanical issues or other things we need to think about before wearing a 10-year old Sub for the first time (e.g. oil is dried up, etc.)? Or, do we just wind it up, set the correct time, and enjoy?
