I have 2 brand new full plastics LVs of the same serial. Today I noticed a very interesting and noticeable difference in bezel color. The first has a typical sharp green color that I've seen in all LV's. The second is a M9 and has a olive green hue that is very soft and pleasant to look at. Does anyone else notice this in their LV?

There is a threadon TZ that shows all the LV models with their different fonts and the bezel colour variations.

I knew the 16610LV and the 116610LV had different "shades" of green but watches of the same serial??? Interesting. I'll keep an eye on this.

My iPhone camera is pitiful. But the difference is quite noticeable

Not to my old eyes but like the trees and grass there are many many shades of green. And even my colour green frog changes in shade with some editing software.

Can you post a pic of the watches side-by-side in the same photo? The angle/glare on your photos is different, so it's kind of hard to compare.

even with GV's dial, you can see the early M series has lighter grey color.

Tried to take one to the best of my abilities :)

Notice the one on the right has a much darker green hue. Very interesting lol, makes my head hurt to think about it.

I can't really tell a difference in your pics. I had a D series that I have pics of and am wearing a V serial now. I'll have to check to see if there is a difference.

Johny · 5 September 2011, 04:36 AM

very interesting.

Interesting but nothing more than Internet hype
