There doesn't need to be a "merit" other than some might find it attractive. Sometimes I kinda like a watch, but wish it had a blue dial. Or a red bezel or a dolphin skin strap. And sometimes those wishes align with an LE release. So I'm happy, box ticked and will buy a watch I was previously a bit on the fence about.
Sometimes I will find LE's repellent, sometimes lovely, but my taste is mine and no one else's....
