In answer to why green for the bezel on the LV I beleive it is the next best colour after black when used as a sub should be underwater. Something to do with light and wave length while underwater. In regard to the LV being limited in one sense yes it is Rolex produce fewer LV Subs than normal Subs so in this sense it is limited. as with all Rolex there will be people who will pay more to be different (why is a Comex seadweller worth so much ?) it only has comex on the dial! the difference in dial colour may be more important in the future as the new Sub is made available in SS in around two years the LV will become more of a rare beast than the normal Sub the differences are small maxi dial bigger fingers green bezel but how many of you out there know about the five min dial (where the swiss made touches the two min indicators both after and before the 30mins indicator at six oclock) Only the LV has this. it may be a very small difference but who would have thought a red Sub would be worth so much when buying one all those years ago. I am a person who thinks you should wish to wear a rolex for reasons other than future gain enjoy them and when you look at the dial to see what time it is wonder how much Mr Wilsdorf is laughing at us all thinking about how much we are all paying for a Rolex now.
