Sequential Serial Number LV's.

I have a 16610lv that I found at an AD in his safe last year that had the stickers on and I couldn't pass it up. Especially with a two year warranty. I just recently found an lv for sale and of course I immediately had to know the serial number. I love that kind of stuff. I looked at the letter and fist two numbers and guess what they were the same as mine. Kept going and it turns out it is the next one in line as far as case stamp. For example if mine is M100100 and the one for sale is M100101. Does that make the pair anymore valuable together. I know a lot about cars and if you had a pair of 70 challengers that were like that the sky would be the limit.

I would love to know your opinion.

Happy Holidays to all.

It's very cool, but in my personal opinion (which isn't that great) I don't think it would add much value to it. They are both still subs.

Unless someone wears 2 watches at the same time or wants the pair for a family member I don't see you getting anymore. Granted I could be way wrong I mostly am, I'm sure other experts will chime in soon =)

An unusual sighting for sure! I am sure there is a collector out there who would find that of value and interest.

Its just a case serial whether 1234567,or 1234568 and just like every serial unique to that case or product no matter what the product is.

I don't think it would give any more value to most people. I am sure there are a few people out there that will pay a small premium to have them both at some point but for the most part, you have two identical subs.
