Bought the Rolex hulk! Good choice or the standard black is better?

Let me know your opinions, thanks!

Fantastic watch. I bought one new in 2014 for £5550 and will never, ever sell it. Congratulations on a unique piece that will be debated and talked about for a long time.

I really enjoy mine on sunny holidays when I can appreciate that dial.

It is a good choice if you like it.

I do not like that shade of green so no, I would not buy one and it would not be a good choice for me IMHO.

I prefer the black, but the green is unique.

Brought the green home and took it back the next day for the black. It's a stunning watch, just not my style.

I got mine a couple months ago. Sometimes I'm not sure I really love it, but then you catch it in the right light and it really shines!

The green is awesome as a second piece, since the color makes it a little harder to pair and therefore less versatile. That being said, I much prefer how it stands out as something special in comparison to a standard Sub.

Love mine and wouldn't exchange it for black but would definitely consider swapping it for a blue dial sub.

Green is nice, but as a secondary sub. Have to get classic black first.

I agree with this 100%. I should have mentioned that I use it as such since I also have an Explorer I and BLNR. Not sure I would choose the Hulk as my one and only or primary watch.

It all depends upon what you like; no one else's opinion matters. How do you like the hulk?

all personal preference. But Hulk is probably a little more rare. (or should it be rarer?)

To the OP, where did you get that watch from?

All the dates are left justified, the bezel teeth look strange, the hand stack center pin seems off, the lume application looks poor on a few of the lume plots.

Maybe it's just the quality and/or angle of the pics that is making me wonder
