Poll and question

Which one do you prefer? Hulk or regular black? Poll started!
Also, would you like to see a green Sub with TT as "the next version"?

There's a pic below... I don't know why I couldn'y add a pic with my first post....

Gotta have both. We have both black and green plus a bluesy so we need not have to go through the dilemma of choosing.





On the green/gold (116613LV I supposed) I don’t think it will fly. Having the LN & LB is good enough. Maybe a full gold version with the jade green dial like the GMTII but on a SubC will be better.

I love the green ... in photos, in the display case, on others' wrists ... but not on my wrist. Black for me.

Black. Whilst I like the green when I see it on other people, i do not get the same feeling when I see it on my own wrist.

I voted for Green because there are simply too many black diving watches around.

In the Rolex lineup, there're three other black diving watches - the no-date Sub, the Sea-Dweller and the Deepsea.

Sometimes that green bezel gives off a plastic like look for some odd reason.

I've got the black one which I think is the more versatile of the two but now want the green as well.

They are both amazing, but if I had to pick just one to wear the rest of my life... Black

Poll and question

LN over LV for a single watch. If you have several get some color. But now for the price I’d have a SubC Bluesy.

I dislike the name "Hulk", not a big fan of the color green but I feel the classic sub is a bit boring.
I'd go with Hulk :)

The Hulk is beautiful, no question. That sunburst dial really looks amazing. That being said, I feel like there are too many versatility issues with the Hulk, which sends me over to the dark side.

Interesting result. I thought for sure hulk will lead at least 2:1 on trf. Hulk may be hot right now but could cool off in the future. The LN will keep going steady.

LV by far. The dial is so good. And no, I would not want to see a TT version.

As the poll suggests, black is far more popular than the green. Which is the main reason I chose Green. Best decision I made - it is a beauty! I see on average one black Sub a day in and around the city I work. Maybe more. Have only seen other LVC in the past 4 years!

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I match my watch with my clothes like how I match my belt to my shoes. I don't wear a lot of green unless it's St. Patty's Day. Clashing accessories (shoes, socks, glasses, watch) scream "look at what I have" in my opinion and that's not my thing at all, but to each his own. So black for me.
