Noob Question: Bond Sub

Recommended Posts

Hello, I collect watches but have limited knowledge about the different models, parts and so on and I really do not work on them (yet).  I am evaluating the possibility of building a vintage Sub--circa 50-60's like a 6538 or 5508 with nato or leather strap like Bond wears in the early movies.  Looked around and see vintage gens going for 15-150K really don't want to spend that much.  I have seen some nice vintage watches posted here but appears the owners collected the parts and built it themselves.  Is it possible to have a rep or a fraken like this built by someone here in the forum?  I am not that concerned with it being perfect or exact match but something that resembles it.  Mainly looking for that vintage Rolex look with strap.  If possible who might be a good contact for something like this.  I realize this will probably be an expensive project.

I would recommend that you search the Rolex forum for others' experiences with pre-assembled franken Subs before buying anything. After you know what you are getting into, check out J&W or NDT.
thank you.
