Sub 16610LV Question
Gents:
Quick question about the Sub 16610LV. Which serial numbes do NOT have the "RolexRolexRolexRolex" in the rehault? I'm a huge fan of the watch, but not a huge fan of the rehault. Thanks for the info! V/R Mike

I believe the engraving started with the M serial. I'm sure the pros will chime in soon.

Y came before F and the first Sub LV was introduced with a Y serial number. Unfortunately these sell at a premium but you can find some out there.
Not sure when exactly this started on the Sub LV, but I am sure someone will be along soon.
