1680 Red Sub
Is $10000 reasonable prices to buy?
Thanks |

Doesn't look great to me for $10k -- I think you could find a better example. And those greenish hands... A previously flooded case perhaps? I'm sure others will weigh in.

No, dial is too badly damaged. Keep searching.

Wait for a better one , If I bought this one I would be always looking at the damage on the bottom of the dial and it would really bug me.

Moisture, water damage...? If caliber is same period, could be damaged too... I would pass on it...

Besides the dial issues mentioned by several posters, the case is pretty beat up and over polished. It's pretty bad when a lug starts to look like a canine tooth.

There are nicer pieces to be found out there. Patience and perhaps a bit more cash will make the difference
