Ultimate Duo BLNR and HULK
What do you think? Is the BLNR and HULK a perfect two watch combo? I have the cash saved for two SS sport watches and I'm debating which two I should get. Any opinions?
Thanks |

For me, it would be the BLNR + 116619LB WG Submariner:)
As far as SS is concerned, the Hulk + BLNR is just about as good as it gets!

I would go with an EXPII vs the BLNR, but I'm biased :)

I really don't care for the BLNR or the LVC, so no, I wouldn't say that they're the ultimate SS duo, lol.
For me, I'd pick a 114060 and a 214270 or a 114060 and a 216570.

Sounds like a great pair to me. I'd also add a 16710 with all three inserts and then I think everything covered. Happy hunting.

For me the ultimate duo is a nice pair of black Subs.

Ultimate combo for me would be
SS subc DD or DJ These are the quintessential Rolex watches. Glad I don't have to limit myself. Love the Daytona, Yachtmaster and the GMT too. But the above is what most think of when thinking of Rolex. |

There are numerous opinions and answers on this question. As the two you mentioned are in my collection my answer would be yes, I love them both

I would not choose those 2. Nor would I ever buy 2 watches at once. I'd buy one, than see where my heart takes me. There are no right or wrong answers here... But my perfect combo is the 16570 and 5513.

I say yes! I currently have and love the Hulk. The BLNR is next on my horizon. To me they are a great pair!
Obviously no right or wrong answers, just opinions. |

I think the best advice has already been given. Don't buy 2 watches at once. Pick the one you like the most and buy that. Then wait a while and see what develops. What you want generally changes.

I went ExpII White dial and then the BLNR. The Hulk is starting to enter into my mind as my 3rd, whenever that may be. I would love a Sub and think the Green would fit well into my small collection of black dial and white dial rolex
