cannot decide…
the time has come to expand my collection… since I bought last November my first one 116710LN I am positively in love…
So, that being said there are two beauties on my mind - 126610LV MK1 or 126619LB Anyhow, I like both, but inclining towards Kermit, cuz it is SS. But LOVE look of 126619… but don’t like white gold… damn it, I cannot make executive decision :)) Both (one or another) will be bought grey (and 126619LB is way cheaper on grey) So, what say you? Appreciate your time folks!

Comes down to what you like. With that said, if it was my money the Sub LV is hard to beat.

For this I would go with the LV.....there is a reason the new LB is so much below retail.

Regardless of the metal, I think the LV looks better. I prefer the green over blue and an all brushed bracelet when it comes to a Sub.

I have 126610LV and love it but the secondary market price for 126619LB is such a good buy (20% off MSRP).
If you love 126619LV also, go for it. For me, I preferred PM over SS.

Really like both personally. Choose the color you’d like to look at more, no wrong choice.
If I were picking between the two…..I’d go blue, I just like blue slightly more than green. For me …blue being PM in this instance is a bonus. |

Given your dislike of WG (which is curious as you're considering a WG sub ) I would probably recommend the LV. As a bonus, it would give you a break from the PCL's when you rotate away from the GMT.

If you don't like white gold then it's an easy choice.
I've tried a couple different Rolexes in WG and just doesn't do it for me. |

Another vote for the LV especially since you don’t like WG
