MAINE FIND: EARLY ROLEX SUB

THIS WAS ON THE WRIST OF A LOCAL ON CHEBEAGUE ISLAND IN MAINE. HE BOUGHT IT NEW IN ZURICH IN THE EARLY 60'S AND WAS IN NO HURRY TO PART WITH IT. (I ASKED.) I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THIS WATCH AND WOULD LIKE TO OWN IT SOME DAY.

Get your own patina. Don't buy someone else's.

UNFORTUNATELY THIS SPECIFIC MODEL IS NOT AVAILABLE TO ADD ALL OF ONES OWN PATINA

Fair enough.

I'm sure you've got your own dealer, but I've got a relative who deals in used Rolexs if you ever want to get in touch.

True story Matthew. My brother's father-in-law found one in his car after having his stereo stolen. Thief didn't realize at the time he was "trading" his watch.

Going to cost a pretty penny.
