No Pearl - 16610LV?

I thought i just saw a new 16610LV without pearl at a AD in Singapore. It was placed next to 16610 and 14060M. It's not like the pearl fell off the bezel, it was smooth and the circle metal holder for the pearl wasn't there. I thought it was a regular bezel for the new V model until i checked the sales on this forum. Is this something new?

Sounds funny to me. It should have a pearl.

It was at Takashimaya Shopping Mall, the AD is The Hour Glass. I am sure they are selling the real watches. I saw it just 15hrs ago or so.

I'm from Spore and never seen a LV without a pearl before. And THG is indeed a reputable AD alongside Sincere & Cortina. Try the other ADs too in ION Orchard

Hmmmmm.............

DEFINITELY something not right with that one though. No Sub LV exists without a bezel pearl.

And also in Lucky Plaza opposite Takashimaya, a couple ADs in there too. This is disturbing!

Sorry for starting something that wasn't true. I just went back to make sure of it and i guess my eyes were playing tricks on me. The LV has the pearl on it. Hmm..

My bad!
