Sooooooo I accidentally bought something
Two things actually:
Today FedEx dropped off this mint Y serial LV with MK1 dial and bezel Notably it took months of searching to get a set with the original bezel that is lime green Don't be mistaken. This green next to a later green is IMHO gorgeous. I've flipped many later LVs and this is my favourite color. Oh yeah and for a bit of flash got this Lets say the lady isn't too happy But I got that covered. Diamond ring on its way according to my jeweller ;) So lots of good news today! |

Nice Will. How would you compare the color of the Y LV vs. later? I know the Y and F inserts are lighter but are they brighter, bolder too -- stand out more?
