Inbound...
Just worked a trade for this D series 16610LV. I traded a 16610 Sea Dweller, I like the Sea Dweller but it always seemed a little small on me. I am new to the LV series, Ive always wanted one, wish I would have picked one up several years ago when they were under $5K but those days are gone. I'm excited to receive it next week.

Anything special about the dial variant, what MK is this? Thanks all and have a great weekend!

I am not familiar with the dial variants for the LVs but who cares?

That is one awesome example.

Congrats.

Very nice and good example of the LV

I'm a big fan of the LV but i don't believe Rolex refer to each LV iteration as a mark x - many of their models have dial changes over a short space in time.

As yours is an earlier one i believe it should have the wide O and slightly tighter print of the Oyster Perpetual Date, possibly different lumes and pearl holder and swiss made i think is between the markers on the later models.
