My new 16610LV Sub
I have been lurking on the forum for a few months reading up on and trying to decide; between getting a SeaDweller (old version)or a Sub (LV version). Had set my heart on getting a SD due to it’s uniqueness & non cyclops look.
However having just missed out by a few hours on one when I visited the Rolex Boutique to a Norwegian guy, and with no chance of getting another one for at least a few more weeks. I decided to have another look at the Sub LV. Not sure if it was the maxi dial, or the Rolex green bezel that did it, but once I put it on my wrist, I instantly knew.… Well as you can see, I am now the owner of a “M” 16610 LV. Problem is I still can not get the SD lust out of my system, maybe sometime next year I will get a SD too :) |

Nice choice, congrats. I probably think about buying a LV every day but I just cant pull the trigger, it looks sweet but I just cant figure out if the green is for me.

It is called the "kermit" but it really is a unique shade of green. You have to see it in person to get hooked..
Like you the thought of a green watch did not cut it. When I saw the LV it was an immediate wow!!! |

Congrats on the LV, personally I would have never "settled" on a watch other than the one I wanted. At any rate, enjoy the LV!
