I was at the Midland watch fair in UK last sunday, lots of very interesting watches there..I asked well known Submariner Guru Mike Wood if he could guess which model of Submariner I was wearing....
For about 45 seconds he looked

Its got a sapphire crystal, traditional sized case without lug holes but with a maxi dial and engraved rehaut and an aluminium bezel (black) insert...

Can you guess which model this is??

16610 with 16610LV dial ?

Bernie.H. · 5 November 2013, 08:54 PM

Is it 16610lv with a black insert ??

alanc · 5 November 2013, 09:02 PM

whatever it is, I like it, especially with the NATO band.

Tri-National-Man · 5 November 2013, 09:07 PM

Oh, I forgot to mention another detail..Its got a slightly fatter minute hand..

Unless I'm buying it I wouldn't care much what the model # was - it looks like a well-kept Sub without its bracelet...

It's a 16610 with a 16610LV dial and minute and second hands and a GMTIIc minute hand.
