For my taste, I don’t usually like the blue subs, but with gold I do.

Looks great and usually the main issue with these is knowing the service history. Go for it if you love it!

It’s a nice piece.
I would swap the bracelet, either with a strap, a steel or a rubber one. I don’t really like the two tone yellow gold in the sub. The blue one is still cool (removing the bracelet). The black two tone yellow gold, I don’t really like it. |

I don’t think I’ve seen an AD with used Rolex. That’s interesting. Obvious questions are price and how complete is package? People say “full set” but tend to be missing some goodies sometimes.

They don't display them, but take them on trade if it is a good example. Asking $10,800

Nice watch, but I would go for a newer one with the new clasp and bezel

It’s too flashy for me. I prefer something less ostentatious. However, it looks like it’s in good condition.

Lugs looks very good and sharp but the crown guards looks a bit over polished I think🤔

It's a nice watch, complete set and recently serviced but you already know that so I wish you good luck.

Not enough photos; I'd say the crown guards look a bit thinned. I like them beefy!!!

Exactly. I would pass based on what I see. I'm not ready to buy yet, but I've been clicking on every one for sale here for a while now. Training my eye for when I'm ready for "my watch" to come on the market! I will not be asking for anyone's opinion beforehand. The hunt is the fun part of collecting!

Are you sure that's 2008? It could just be the pics but it doesn't look like it has the engraved rehaut which I believe it should. Probably sold in 2008 but a slightly earlier production year.

Beautiful. This is the watch that got me excited about Rolex many years ago.

Average condition for the age. Nice watch. Been polished several times. It’s a classic. Happy hunting!

Looks to be in good condition ... it all comes down to what you like. Personally, I'm not a 5 digit TT sub guy, but it's your money and up to what sings to you.
