I'd be really curious to see pics of the crown height when they're available!

It still looks like it has a low crown! How is that the case if it's truly a 3135 copy?

This LV is in stock right now, also the YM will be available the 5th October, for the ceramic Sub, the 15th October... I saw real pics of the hulk 116610LV and it's totally different than the pics on the website, the watch really looks great, mostly the dial. only thing it won't come superlume, except that, the pearl looks better than most of the 116610LV reps on the market, and the SEL are improved, there is not the usual fat hour hand, and the crown position looks good to me.

Is the dial on the Hulk with sunburst effect or not? Any other pictures you might have would be great to see for my thread.

I'm bummed the 16610 isn't more accurate-looking but the 116610 looks great! As far as my untrained eyes can tell it looks like they've finally got the crown position and case right, not just copying the GMT... Alex will have thoughts on this I'm sure!

Clasp looks wrong too

rsh

Yeah the links near the clasp end are WRONG for a 16610 with the solid end link braclet, but are RIGHT for the 93150 braclet that is on the 14060M NON-date sub that comes with the older hollow end link, with the lug holes!

Here's a couple of pictures for illustration of my gen 14060M:

Look at the left sid eof picture the links nearer the strap are the same as the LV

Just to illustrate the hollow end link style braclet used on the older subs with lug holes.

Of course the locking bar is completely wrong!! :facepalm:
