16610LV (Lunette Vert) - The 'true' Anniversary Submariner(Part 1))

[sportee]

[QUOTE=Ian Limm;276004]The writer is a collector and collectors are obvioulsy very particular about what constitutes a "True Anniversary Green Sub".
it is his opinion that the watch must be only from the year 2003 because the sub started 1953 to 2003 (50 years).

Green sub released after 2003 are not considered "true anniversary subs" in his opinion.

Sounds pretty true in my opinion...

after 2003 considered commercial sub, heh heh..

Chapter Ring for Submariner???

I saw a post selling a BNIB 16610LV claiming that it has a chapter ring. Is there a chapter ring for submariner??? Or did the person confused the rolexrolexrolex rehaut with chapter ring?

Any bros can explain?

"Chapter ring" = "rehaut"

"Chapter ring" = "rehaut"

Hmm.... so it a case of the person confusing the chapter ring with the rehaut, or some pple just take the rehaut as being refering to the chapter ring. No harm i guess, but it abit weird for a dealer to use a wrong term which could be misleading...

LV is still available for sale..

it is confirm that it will be discon with the new sub green dial green bezel.

this time round, i dont think anyone is rushing to get it primarily because it has been rumoured to be discontinued for so many years

anyway, the price has fallen close to 3k from its peak.
