This Sub now looks fantastic and is super cool, but I'm not sure about its appeal/value in the world of vintage watch collecting.

I believe this watch has a lot of value in the vintage watch world especially with how rare a Luminova Red Sub dial is. Also, yes the patina and original nature of the watch is now gone, but there are many people out there that would pay a premium for this new looking red Sub... definitely more than the $10k the OP has in it.
