Red Sub IV

Ok Guys, so while I've always liked red Subs, I've never "needed" one. Thanks to you all and your wonderful pics I'm in the market and eager! I really have been leaning toward a non-Rolex as my next purchase (won't mention a wonderful brand that rhymes with "you know") but have pretty much narrowed in on a Red Sub. I have been reading and comparing examples etc. A seller out of Texas is selling this example(Maybe one of you guys?). My family has a home there and I am curious if this example is proper? It appears to be a Mark IV dial---any info and or advise would help. Does everything look "Genuine"





Thanks in advance guys. Thanks most importantly for being awesome forum members!

yes it's a first series "feet first" ( I call it "mk1" to avoid confusion with the dials "meters first" ).
range : from 2.4 up to around 3.2-3.3
( overlap with "meters first" dials from 2.4 up to around 2.5 )
( overlap with the "mk2 feet first" above 3.0 ).

Well the dial definitely looks like a MK IV (Mk4), so the serial should be in the 2.4mil to 3.3mil mil range IMHO. Lookes pretty original to me, but we need more pictures.
