Does anyone have any good side by side or wrist comparison shots of the old SS Sub LV next to the new standard ceramic bezel Sub? Thanks

Thank you for the pictures! They are so similar... But so different.

The way the narrow bracelet mates to the blockier new case gives the C a strange appearance especially in the second to last photo.

I prefer the older lug style but am on board with the other improvements.

Funny: the SEL is recessed on the LV, but it is level with lugs on the ceramic: this one appears more squarish consequently. How could engineers call that a design improvement?

Oh, and the 16610lv is not working .

Kermit rocks :)

Its enlarged hour markers look far more proportional than the 16610.

i always try to make an effort to set the minute and hour hands to 10:11, and date at 28 but sometimes the seconds hand is abit of PITA... so i will just let it be

(except for wrist pix

)

but... on a closer look - i realised i have set the date on 116610LN at 25

Here is a 16610LV (with black insert) next to the Hulk ... three LV's if you will ... and three waterproofs to boot.
