LV = green bezel

M = the year of production (2008)

sub with date = your 16610, Submariner with Date

sub no date = 14060m, Submariner without date

Series M = watches manufactured during 08

Series V = watches manufactured during 09

Sub LV = Submariner with Green Bezel, 16610LV

hope it helps. Thanks.

haha thanks very clear and if that is the case, think i may have made my first rolex blunder.....just took out my rolex box and checked out the warranty card...its has a V3XXXetc, so i guess this means my rolex is V series that is made in 2009?

haha learn another new thing again....thanks guys! BTW, is M series better or V series better? Or there is no difference at all, that is it is merely an issue on the year of production?

[seiko.citizen]

is a 2008 or 2009 merc s class better?

both is the same car. it is just production

if you buy new from AD or grey dealers of course V is better, as you are getting a brand new set and not a new old stock.

[seiko.citizen]

i wont say better, just new stock

[zidaneong]

ya, at least is buying new stuff, unless you are looking for watches like eg. GMT2 Coke, then you have to buy 2nd hand as it is discontinued few yrs ago.

may i ask if rose gold more valueble or diamonds ??

[Oceanklassik]

One is precious metal; the other is precious stone/mineral. I'd guess the latter.

This is subjective.

If you are comparing 1kg of Rose gold vs a 0.1 carat....of course the diamond lose.

For diamonds it will depend on the estimated value of the item,the 5Cs play the big part. And for Rose gold it's just the amount or weight of the gold

[honeybee]

if between a ss full diamond rolex and a two tone rose gold no diamond rolex, which one is better??

[weizhen77]

The one that looks nice to you is better
