No there are not. I've owned many F series and the flat 4s are found on the early F serials and the Ys. Besides the insert being unique on these early watches , so was the dial. I've never read anything substantive that would indicate otherwise.

I think I remember a thread where someone had a D serial LV with a flat 4, Mark III dial and oval O.

There are D-serials available with flat four inserts. I have seen two myself and this is also indicated in the reference guide to 16610LV that’s often linked here.

Referring to this post and also posts #8 and #20 my question is were there 5 digit serial numbers used with letter designation on the 16610LV's?

The Y and early F serials had the attributes for the first generation anniversary 16610LVs. Now that they are the most valuable, we see claims the D serials had the same attributes? You might have seen a D serial with a flat four but did it have the correct dial? I don't have to tell you that it has been 14 years since these watches were released and anything could have been changed on them to enhance the value. I have never heard of a D serial-numbered having the correct dial and insert as the early anniversary watches. It would be a "red flag" to most collectors I'm sure.

Also the LV's were not available until after the 3rd week of Nov 2003 - So if you find one dated September 2003, like it says in the little chart, that's another Red Flag - Here's the Rolex USA letter dated November 14 2003 (that was a Friday too). So they can't be dated before then (earliest I've seen is 11/21/2003) ... |

Mine is an F5 serial and has a pointy 4 which I believe to be the original insert it came with from the factory. 'O' is not visible but is a squashed one!

F n D flat 4
hi guys.
I have something in my hands and believe Zed82's idea. Would this be a little help to think late F and early D have Flat 4? F is Mk1 and D is Mk3 dial both HK paper dated Apr 2005. |

Have an F4XXXX and it has the flat 4 with Mark1 dial. The bezel insert in mine is a lime green as the older series tend to have more of an emerald green.

I just bought a Kermit with a Mark 3 dial & flat-4 lime green insert - serial # is D19xxxx and guarantee certificate from a Monaco Rolex AD dated July 2005. It came from my most trusted dealer, who bought it from its first owner.
While current info resources about dial & insert variations have been generally accepted as "written in stone", I think they were mostly U.S. based and did not take into account, variations shipped to the rest of the world. As several years have now passed since those were published , we now see new differences from Europe & Asia here. Perhaps someone would be kind enough to take the time to update the info ? Just my 2 cents ... cheers, all |

Sorry to revive an old topic… I recently purchased an early D series (D04) 16610 lv with the flat 4 serif bezel insert and an oval O, narrow spaced oyster perpetual date, 3 ticks swiss made dial. Warranty dates June 2005. Purchased in Asia.

Are all F series 16610lv's Flat Four's?
It is mentioned as 2004 F serial, any idea which ‘Mark’?
