Argh why am thinking of getting the hulk as WELL as my black sub (already mine)

I expected it to be way too similar but it's just..awesome..its green and beautiful and I've always loved the submariner more than anything else!!?

Sublovin · 3 January 2016, 03:04 AM

Whatever you like! I love the Sub , but this would not be my choice if I only had two Rolexes

FTX I · 3 January 2016, 03:05 AM

You're not alone. I don't own the LV-C but it's easy to understand why people here love it.

WatchWeb · 3 January 2016, 03:12 AM

I love how it can be a different looking watch in various lighting.

Not sure if I'd get one if I already owned a sub though . My second watch from my GMT to LV is a difference though IMO.

Steve36Efc · 3 January 2016, 03:16 AM

Go for it, I can see one in my future. It's an awesome watch.

locutus49 · 3 January 2016, 03:27 AM

I had the option of ALL watches and chose the Hulk (and Platona). So IMO you can't go wrong with the hulk. It goes with everything.

robbonds · 3 January 2016, 03:37 AM

sell your black and buy the hulk - its beautiful!!

This. It's easy enough to reverse if you change your mind.

Goldfish68 · 3 January 2016, 03:44 AM

Talking from experience, green and then followed by the blue, can't go wrong.

GB-man · 3 January 2016, 03:46 AM

I think once you have the hulk you will love it. I have an LVc and SDc in a 4 watch rotation right now.

2JHead · 3 January 2016, 03:53 AM

Nothing wrong with a narrow themed collection:) I had subs and GMTs only for a while and I had a few.

KenNethcole · 3 January 2016, 04:03 AM

Nothing wrong with owning 2 subs. I think they are different enough to be in the same collection.

SemperFi · 3 January 2016, 04:04 AM

I don't see an issue having both. I'm sure there are many with an "all Sub" collection.

yld2rob · 3 January 2016, 04:18 AM

I have both the LN and LV. I bought the black LN first to "go with everything" and to own the classic. Then, I loved the sub so much but wanted one that is not seen much in the wild. So, I bought the green LV. I have seen tons of black subs out in public over the years but only once have I seen a LV in the wild.

They are 2 different watches. You could have both.

Danny83 · 3 January 2016, 05:46 AM

They make a great pair

Daytona88 · 3 January 2016, 05:52 AM

I like the combo of the two. Not sure I would have the LV as my only watch but makes great sense if you can have both!

If you already have a Sub, I wouldn't get the Hulk as a second watch. Maybe consider a GMT, Daytona, or something else. However, if you're attracted to the Hulk, maybe sell your black Sub and get the Hulk.

Old Expat Beast · 3 January 2016, 07:03 AM

Sit it out for a few weeks. See how you feel then. You might move on to another model in the meantime.

Problem I have is ok..

GMT - don't like GMTs at all - I like clean, simple and look at that GMT hand like a scratch on my dial!

Daytona - I know this is THE one and most popular..I don't like Chronos and only do ceramic bezels.

DSSD - tooooo friggin thick! Tried it on twice and reckon I would catch it on multiple things!

All the others, day dates all of them just do NOTHING for me..It's the sub and only the sub for me call me boring but that's it. My other is Omega Seamaster Pro blue which I love also.

This is the thing too..people say sell..but WHERE lol? ebay? will lose 500 in fees alone..the sales thread here no one even REPLIED to my Omega Spectre thread (sold out everywhere and going nearly 1000 over RRP on ebay) so don't think that would achieve much! I think a lot of buyers here are based in the US and I am UK

Good call

I'm hoping to make some good change in my silver snoopy award if it ever turns up!

Chances of a new sub at Basel 2016??

If you've considered most other models then it is the right choice for you... altho also a TT/PM model maybe too

jnkay · 3 January 2016, 10:01 AM

I have an LN and LV that get most of my wrist time. The change in dial color is enough of a difference for me. Love them that much. Usually when I wear something different it's because I want polished center links for a changeup.

If you want to have both, go with 114060 and Hulk. Its diverse and yet both are subs!

It's good to know what you like. I would say given your criteria, the Lvc is a perfect next for you. Then, as Neil said, you can look at a TT/Full gold model. Problem solved.
