Keep the IWC and flip the GMT for the Hulk. Bye bye PCL, hello Green!

Gotta ask - was the Hulk out when you bought the GMT? If so, why didn't you choose it over the GMT at that time?

In any event, whatever floats your boat. At these price points no sense not being 100% happy. But personally I'd cull a different one from the herd to fund the LVC.

wouldn't be a bad idea to add a color or two to your collection(great one by the way)

I would trade your IWC for hulk. Like someone said, I'm not sure trading GMT for hulk is good idea. Good luck.

I'd keep the GMT. I think you'll end up missing it.

Thank you all for sharing your thoughts. I am now feeling quite convinced that I need to add a Hulk to my collection. However, this means that I have to get rid of my GMT as I want to limit my collection to one piece per brand. Besides, I need to save up for a peacock piece in precious metal.

I would be on the fence too.

I like to switch things up and keep them exciting.

I think the LVC is a awesome watch. I also love the GMTC as it might be the best overall watch out there.

But again, I like to keep things exciting so it is a toss up.

If you ever decide to get the GMTC back, it would be a simple thing to do.

I think if it were me, flip the IWC, keep the GMT add the hulk.

Hulk to add green to your collection. Head to head, BLNR. In fact, even if I had your collection, I'd still choose the BLNR. Nothing wrong with the Hulk but I am not just too fond of the color green.

+1 for BLNR or Blusey. Everytime I try on a Hulk at an AD the Blusey dial just steals it's thunder. I'm still not able to get over the yellow gold but maybe someday.
