I have my ceramic on right now as I'm typing. It's such an amazing watch. For me, I never really fell in love with the LV. I walked around with a normal 16610 but when the Hulk was released, I had to have it. Whichever you choose to keep you can't go wrong.

Good luck. You'll get about 50/50 with this.
The better one, is the one you prefer.

Ceramic for me...once you have experienced the Glidelock clasp, it is hard to go back to anything else.

Since you are looking for a watch to wear, I would keep the LVC. Since your LV is BNIB, I would sell it. Some collector may want it for a safe queen.

16610LV.....Green and black and never look back. Plus it's a classic. It's a perfect daily wearer.
Just wish they made this version....but I can dream....

Keep both.
I have the LV 16610 and I am seriously contemplating getting the LVc as weel. To most, that would be way too much green, but like the post above says, it comes down to what one desires most. Picking between the two would be tough.

I guess that depends on your definition of "better"

I vote LVc. The sunburst dial is amazing, ceramic bezel, and the glidelock as opposed to the tinny clasp on the LV.

Ceramic LV on my wrist. It's everything the LV is, and more. Can't go wrong. The dial looks black most of the time on the wrist.

That's true, unless its bright the dial looks pretty dark most of the time.
