Bit late asking that now. The LVc is the best modern SS Rolex but no wrong answer. The LVc is my go to in a zombie apocalypse but the LN is my grail.

That pic looks great. OP's pics give the watch a funny dark shade, think we need to see more in better light to confirm it is OK.

Agree, we need more pics, esp considering OP's other posts which are mostly about real v fake.

The Hulk is much more of a dynamic watch with the sunburst dial and multiple color hues depending on light source and angle. The black is classic and conservative but boring, IMO

Congrats!

OP seems to have a lot of 'friends of friends' wanting to sell dodgy watches.
Hope I'm wrong, but...

Only you know what works for you. I have a 114060 and a 116613LB, and I am seriously considering adding the LV. I know 3 modern Subs...but I love Subs and the diversity of colors would be great.

I think it's ok. The rehaut spacing is correct. It's a bit rare to see the small "ft" dial marking as opposed to tall "ft", but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. The date issue mentioned looks to be a non-issue because if you look at the angle it is held in the pic, the bezel pearl looks like it lines up with the 60 min marker, which in realty doesn't usually happen. I believe the watch is un-level in the pic, right lean causing date to look left and peal to look aligned.

The bracelet tolerances seem a bit loose, however, but I imagine it may just be the image quality, which may also be off in color accuracy.

I always worry what the motive is with any "how does this look" or "is this fake" type posts.

My alert goes up when I see the bezel dark but the sunburst still vibrant. The real ones don't have this disparity, if anything the dial goes black, like the pic a few posts below. SEL looks bad too. We need better daylight pics to confirm.

Yes, I agree and the color looks off in all pics of both the dial and bezel. But hopefully just the image quality.

Nice work Adam.

Anyone who saw his 10 posts could deduce he was fishing.

i bought this banana and my mate said its real... now it doesnt come with any extra banana's so i cant be sure but i dont think my mate would lie to me because it was given to him by his late grandfather who used to race nascar around a banana plantation.
If you can tell me anything that you can see that would be great so i can sell it to someone else

We need more pics to determine authenticity.
