I went for a more classic, traditional approach with this model a true classic Sub style watch featuring a domed acrylic crystal, an aged vintage-style sub dial with a date window, and iconic Mercedes hands. I mean, how can you go wrong with that? Answer is... you can't. But for a bit of an unexpected twist, I chose a rich, deep red bezel insert instead of the black one. this red bezel insert was aged to perfection. to achieve that vintage look and here we are. A truly beautiful Vintage Sub Diver watch. 

Everything about this timepiece exudes classic appeal not just in its design cues, but also in its beautifully distressed finish. From the oyster bracelet, clasp, case and crown, every detail carries a sense of timeless character.

For those wondering about its Model name the answer is yes, it is inspired by  "Red-Haired Shanks" (赤髪のシャンクス, Akagami no Shankusu) 🏴‍☠️⚔️🌊
