You will regret it big time. You will be able to get a 114060 for the coming 10 yrs, you may never be able to get the Kermit again.

I wouldn't do the trade. I'd keep the LV and save for the 114060 ;)

No, please keep the LV. It will appreciate as you appreciate it on your wrist.

No, I have both. LV is a keeper. No date is nice but it's a flipper.

Thanks for all of your feedback.

My momentary lapse has passed and it will definitely stay on my wrist.

Cheers!

Keep the LV. I wondered too about flipping mine.. but after two days, it was on my wrist again.
Do not underestimate the bracelet: imho it is better engineered than the new one, regarding the "K.I.S.S." principle. (keep it simple, stupid!)
Less parts, lighter, no springs, AND as efficient as the new one (except from the possibility to expand - retract it more easily).

For me, 16610 is the best watch ever made, aesthetically and from an engineer point of view, all brand known included.

Why do people say you'll never be able to get an LV again? I see them for sale all over the place.

Personally I am/was torn between the two, but dollar for dollar I would rather buy something new and with warranty. But that's just me.
