My new Sub LV
Just picked up my new Sub LV M series , and kept my old black bezel insert.
I also ordered another insert, seeing that my old one has a cracked pearl.
Watch looks great, its like having 2 watches with the extra insert.

It's an abbreviation for ' Lunette Verde', which, presumably, describes the green bezel.

I think that the green sub is very special. It has the older style case (non-super case) and bracelet but with a maxi dial, I like it.

Thanks all, I will change the bezel out when the new insert arrives, should be in around a week or so, pics will follow. Love the Maxi dial, and the green bezel is a nice change. I asked my Ad to try and get me the bezel as well as the insert, never hurts to ask.
Hey Bo good to have you back.
