For Sale: Vintage Rolex Red Submariner - maybe the nicest example in existence
I'm kicking the idea around of selling my vintage red Sub. This particular piece was featured on Hodinkee, then later Valet and all over the internet as being one of the nicest examples of a red Sub in the world. Here are some links to stories about this particular watch.

Valet. > The Edit > Objectified > Vintage Watch Patina

I'll take $13,500 and am open to interesting trades.

Simply amazing. I have read about that piece before - no idea it was yours, but not very surprised it is!

Thanks guys. Not the cheapest Red Sub out there, but if you like your vintage watches to actually look like vintage watches, it doesn't get any nicer than this.
