Yellow gold sub lv hulk

How cool would the hulk look in yellow gold? If the hulk does get discontinued this year I hope its for an upgrade to the new movement and in yellow gold.

Why does everyone here think the Hulk will be discontinued? I don't understand the logic?

That would be pretty cool with the green bezel and black dial, kinda reverse of the Green GMT

That would be cool to see in YG with green dial and green bezel. I don’t know if they would need to discontinue the LV in SS.

It’s on their website still. I highly doubt Rolex would end one it’s most popular models.

There are the speculators here that want the Hulk gone and replaced with a blue dial/bezel SS Sub. IMO this ain't happening. Want a blue dial Sub go TT or PM. Can't imagine Rolex only offering the 116610LN and nothing else as an alternative.

This looks terrible to me. The colored just don’t work together IMO. I think it will never happen.

In the run up to Basel 2019 some people were telling me that the BLNR was history, and some people were telling me that Rolex would not dare.

Turns out they were both right.

I personally don't dig the YG/green mock up. Each to our own.

I have an LV (and love it) and even I think it should have been released like this instead. Nice job!

I’ve never seen a professional model Rolex in PM that I didn’t prefer in Steel so if this happens it won’t matter to me.

I saw a photo on instagram of the hulk and because of the lighting it looked like it was RG. That really did look cool. Not feeling the YG look.

This in a nutshell. It is simply those who want to cash in on their Hulks that desperately want it discontinued. They don't give a horse puck about wearing it and enjoying it. All about money.
