Notes

Property of the original Italian owner
Launched in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Submariner, the 16610 LV was launched in 2003. The first series were made until 2004 and until serial F54XXXX. This watch was delivered at Bonvicini in Lodi in September 2004 and is recognisable as being part of the first series of the flat four series by its style of the 4 in the bezel that is serifed and showing sharp angles. It also comes with the correct Rolex box (reference 64.00.02)
and all its accessories as the day it was sold. Amazingly the watch has never been worn, still featuring its untouched hologram caseback sticker, protective case stickers all in place and its plastic bezel ring, making this a truly New old Stock example.
