I'm thinking about putting an offer on this E serial Sub. Looks like it has new hands and a new bezel but the face has nice patina. I would prefer matching patina hands and pearl but it's not a deal breaker for me. It comes with box and papers.

You can always buy a matching set of hands and pearl.

I would wait until you find something exactly to your liking.

That's not a rare watch by any standard, I would wait for a better one. Good patina on a dial looks off next to new hands (or vice versa). Ands if that is the box in the photo, it's about 12 to 15 years too new for that watch.

I think you're right. I like the dial but the hands and bezel are off. The price was right but I'll pass for a more complete watch.

I would not buy it, because of the fact (new hands) you mentioned.
