Thanks guys! Yes this hobby is mad at times....
I didn't set out to buy all the greens it just happened that way.
Yes they were all mine but I recently sold the centre one to a friend and instantly regretted it.
It's torture when he comes round wearing the LV lol.
I'll buy it back at some point but no doubt double what I sold it for!

Happy Holidays Everyone.

Bloody. Hell. That's quite the collection, and of the one model.

The second from the right is my favourite.

Don't let your other watches hear you say that! They'll start running fast, changing dates randomly...

Quick Kermit question: why are kermits being sold by SDwatches so expensive? He has quite a few, and all are $14K upwards. Watchrecon and TRF regularly sell quality 16610LVs for between $8-12K. Also, from a detailed look at some of the bezels, straps, etc, most have some marks indicating that they are not "new old stock." I'd say they've definitely been worn.

Any thoughts?

Not exactly sure why the price difference but personally think it maybe a bit of " chancing your arm " as some say in the uk . To everyone one else it means , Sell for the highest price possible & if someone buys at that price more fool them.

Hi CPR,

Thanks. Yes, that's what I'm wondering. Those prices seem awfully high. Maybe I'll throw out a wider question as a new topic. Apparently, the seller is legit so I'm wondering why he would price all of his Kermit stock so high. Curious indeed.

Congratulations on your LV, the green bezel can be a bit marmite to some . But not for me ,I just love the green insert & the different shades of green when in different lighting situations .
My V serial ,
