Congrats! Thanks for sharing your trip and experience, in way I felt some of your excitement!

The 116610LV is a very special and unique watch. A watch for conosieur. Rock it in great health. Looks fantastic under the summer sun, also looking forward to pics with its different green more subdued colours during the long Finnish winters :)

...I am waiting for my LVc from the local AD...should be in month...or two...must have patience!

Meanwhile please post more pics!

The local AD are great people and we're happy to source this one for me in less than month and a half. I believe the fact that I live in 2 km from their location and that I was visiting and pestering them a lot for different reasons with only a single previous purchase (Tudor) helped a bit.

Anyway, with this watch the grass is never greener on the other side :-)

I waited this for 10 months—now I think is 2-3 years... Good luck for your hunt!
