I am new to the forum, but have owned my 116610LV since December 2016 and it was on my wrist at least 5 days a week for the vast majority of that time. I have found that it does not get as much wrist time since I picked up my 126711CHNR and 116500LN at the end of 2019, but it will always be one of my favorites. The way it wears and the brilliance of the dial in the sun are truly remarkable. Obviously I’ve got the bug, but if one were so inclined it would be a very good choice for a one watch collection (particularly for the collector who likes to stand out a little).

I am new to the forum, but have owned my 116610LV since December 2016. Throughout most of that time it has been on my wrist 4-5 days a week. I have found that it does not get as much wrist time since I picked up my 126711CHNR and 116500LN in late 2019, but it will always be very special to me. The way it wears and the look of the dial when the sun hits it is absolutely brilliant. Obviously I’ve got the bug, but if one were so inclined it would make a very good choice for a one watch collection (particularly for the collector who likes to stand out a little).

Got the call yesterday for my 116610LV! Picking it up on Saturday. No prior purchase history from the AD, and best of all, only 2.5 weeks since they put my name on the list!

I've tried a couple on at GTG's (back when we could have GTG's) and can't get over how much better they look in person than in photos...no offense to any photos here, lol
pretty sure I'll get one when the time is right.

Btw, I can't find again a pic which summarized the different dial variations of the watch (it came from a book, can't recall the name).
Anyone?
Thx
