Welcome to the Red Family Thread!

I can't see the "660" on your dial, but because it is a Feet first and because the cross bar on the "f" and "t" are even, I would agree you have a MarkV

It was brought to an AD last month where the Rolex technician actually came down from his bunker because the sales associate called up about a "red" submariner. It took a month to service (pressure test, new acrylic, gaskets, and oil). I'm not much of a photographer so I wasn't able to get a straight shot of the dial without getting an annoying reflection. But here is a partial serial number that was written down by the technician:

S/N: 3302XXXX IV.72


I've only recently read up on details regarding the red sub and am curious to know what level of fatness my bezel font is as I am still having trouble identifying them. Also, how much patina is considered ideal? Although pictures aren't the best, how would you rate the patina? Any info would be great! And what MK is it? MKIII/IV?
Very nice Red Sub. Congrats.
