This is coming up for auction. I'm just beginning to learn about these, and it looks like a MAXI IV dial. I like that's it's a bit dirty, but has it been polished. The insert and drystal look original, but I could be wrong. Any input is greatly appreciated. I realize there are buyer premiums, taxes, shipping, etc, but any guess on what the final price would be?

For starters, pretty sure the bracelet and end links aren't original. Should be 7206 with different end links.

No, a 1981 Sub should not have a 7206. A 93150 would be "correct"

The 7206 Swiss Oyster rivet bracelet was out of production for over a decade before this watch was produced!

Ok thanks, how does the rest of it look?

It's not unheard of to see a 5513 w/ a 78360 band, but usually early 70s IIRC.

Looks like a Mark IV dial. Hands and Dial have matching patina. Case and bezel insert look decent.

Needs a service by an independent to keep original parts, not sure how much that goes for currently.

Thank you.

Looks good man. Case actually still looks pretty sharp. Assuming that is it’s original PIP in the insert which is pretty rare from my experience with the search.

93150 would be the proper bracelet for this specific watch. But I have mine on a 78360 currently and I really enjoy it. Very comfortable.

Hope you weren’t planning on bidding on it,Posting a live Auction on a Forum is sure to drive the final hammer price up.

Wasn't worried too much about it, not like Heritage is hard to find :-) I also collect coins, and we usually respect someone who asks about a currently auctioned piece on our coin forum. I might bid, but certainly don't have any claims to it, so I say bid away if you want to. As little as I know about Rolexes, I'd rather ask the question than get ripped off.
