I've not been a fan of the green. Red and blue for me.

I find the Hulk so special. It is very endearing. The dial is so much.
The features are a bonus above the Pepsi (buckle, tightness).

I had a Pepsi, which I sold without regrets for an AP 15500, I will not have done it for the Submariner. It is a keeper.

Now to say that one is better than the other is not objective. Don't listen to people, just follow your perspective...

Hulk

Unique.

As an owner of an older gmt, not too keen on the new ones. Especially the bezel. I think the numbers seem bulbous. Great watch but prefer the 5 digit or before.

The green dial and oyster bracelet of the Submariner make it a winner for me

All the hype aside, if hulk, Batman , and Pepsi were all similar secondary market and msrp , just based on looks, I would opt for blnr Batman on oyster. Voted Pepsi since Blnr is not poll option.

I voted Hulk. Pepsi is a gorgeous watch, no doubt, but I just don't see a need for the GMT complication. I do a lot of traveling across all the timezones in the US, but I just don't need a GMT to tell me what time it is back home.

I suppose if I were a pilot, needed to know GMT time and frequently flew all over the globe, a GMT watch would be great.

Both. It's such a difficult choice.
Almost like choosing between your kids :)

Hard to choose when one is no longer available from an AD.

If you are seeing pink and purple on newer models you must be color blind.

By far the Pepsi for me. Voted here and with my $.

I do not care for green Submariners.

The GMT complication is much more useful at least for me.

For me the appeal of the Hulk is that it is the most unique Submariner variation ever made.

depends on what else you have. IMO Hulk if adding to an already versatile collection, pepsi if it's a one and only.

I love the Hulk, but if I had to choose I'd take the Pepsi. I really do want a GMT someday
