After paying through my nose for customs its here
Looks gorgeous, has a few nicks but nothing a watchmaker can't take out.
I LOVE the green. This is what was missing from my 16610.
Honestly guys, i LOVED the pam. It just never sat right on my wrist. The bloody deployment killed my wrist and was stabbing me. I think that means that my dream PATEK would do the same... sigh.
The OQ was a beauty, but didn't scream (AADIL!).
I'm glad im at a solid 2 rolexes, and a solid 2 tissots.
Im getting it authenticated (being paranoid) today/tomorrow, and sending out the watches on saturday.
Ill be posting pics tonight. Im on reading week so ill be posting quite a bit here!
Now... how about that 18k WG Daytona...
:D

Congrats! Where are the pics??????

tag_addict · 17 February 2007, 10:06 AM

Im at work... ahem
I mean.... yeah im at work. Haha
Im going out with Ashley for our late valentines, then im home to take pics.
:)
The next rolex I'll get is either an 18k WG daytona with that stunning silver dial. Or a SS daytona with white dial. Not sure yet. Double the price. Who knows. Maybe if the new GMT II comes in basel. Guys...

im hooked

Congratulations on the LV, its a mighty fine watch.
The green is very different, and there is no reason why you can't also have a black bezel insert for sometime down the track when you want a change of scenery.
For me the maxi dial and hands are the elements that distinguish the appearance of the LV. Enjoy

Wear it in good health, it's hard to beat that green in person.

tag_addict · 17 February 2007, 10:13 AM

Im actually thinking for my birthday of requesting a whole new bezel with a late series black insert. Not just the insert to swap, but swap the bezel. It would make for speedy changes no? Then I could strap a NATO on the black guy. Customizable :D

Seriously though i love the maxi dial!

Lots of people complain about that... the 44mm sits better on the wrist full stop and a buckle is more comfortable. Next time maybe...

Congrats on the LV, as long as your happy thats all that matters!

The green bezel looks good in photos...does it look even better in person?
