Hello all. Name is Sean, currently from a little town north of Atlanta, proud owner of a red sub inherited a few years ago from my dad. He wore it every day from the day he bought it until the day he dies and it looks it. Have all the paperwork, box, etc... at my stepmoms which I'll grab some day. Did already get a Rolex passport holder which is kind of cool. I know it's had the bad replaced a few times but pretty sure the original is in the box, also sure it's had at least one crystal replacement but I don't think anything else has been done other than normal upkeep every few years.

Mainly here to lurk and find info on watchmakers who I can trust to work on something that honestly has more value to me than it's worth. Shipping it to Switzerland and chancing a dial replacement or the like isn't an option.
