Wanted some help on this 16610lv
I kind of went a little backwards on this by asking questions after the purchase but as you can see from the name on the pics, I felt pretty comfortable.
 I really love that oval O. Anyways, what I gather it is and F serial, And it may be. Mark2-1 Dial If anyone can tell me anything else or point me in the right direction that would be great. This would be what I consider my first vintage piece Also, I dropped it off at Rolliworks for complete overhaul and seals and chamfers. Ok I'm prepared to hear it from you, good or bad       Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Firstly, David SW is 100% trustworthy. Looks good. Depending on what serial the bezel could be original as flat 4 until around mid f6xxxxxxx.

Chamfers on these LVs are minimal but on this piece they seem to have been polished out. If OP is going to get it polished ok in my mind to restore them. |

I wouldn’t polish it unless you are a dealer and want it look very pretty to resell.
