The joy of removing stickers
I just completed a fantastic deal with train-time (Tim), great guy and I could not be happier with the end result. I know have a brand new M serial Sub LV to enjoy, complete with all stickers attached. It has probably been a year since my last purchase from a AD were I had the joy of removing all those little stickers. I have been eyeing the LV for a couple of years now but finally decided it was time to make it happen, amazing watch I must say. The dark green insert looks amazing, I like it more than the green crystal on my old Milgauss GV, the maxi dial and hands are stunning as well. Here are some pics., today is a great day.

Congratulations
You’re supposed to take that plastic off… There is nothing like taking off all the plastic stickers. I even kept all mine I stuck them back onto a clear plastic bag and put them with the box. |

Man, that watch is nice! Makes me wonder if I should have gotten the green one instead of the black dial? The important decisions in life are so difficult to make!

Thanks to everyone for the replies. I am kicking myself for waiting so long to pull the trigger on the LV, what a great looking watch, I could have been enjoying one for years now.
