I imagine that the paper guarantee should say LV on it as well. Serial number will be on it then pull the bracelet off and compare.

Papers do not say LV on it papers say 16610V. Also you want to make sure papers are dated in 03'.

I know on the LV's with USA paperwork, only true way is to match the serial # on the case to the warranty paperwork. Then look at the style # on the warranty paperwork and it will include a V where as the LN model will have an A.

Maybe I should have said guarantee or warranty card. My credit card warranties say 16610LV.
