Thank you. There is something about it I can't explain. It just seems a little wild and doesn't make sense like the black dial.

Yes sir, it sure does come to life outdoors in the sun.

However, that dial is a stunner and taken together the green bezel and dial work well.

It's just not my style.

As Subs go, I think that the 14060M is the zenith of Submariner style.

A few days ago I was saying the same thing about the watch and not my style. I wasn't big on the combination of the colors on the bezel and dial. I also didn't think I'd like having a big green watch on my wrist. It all changed after I wore it a few minutes. I wouldn't want it as a one and only, it's too loud for a GADA watch.

Oh, and I agree 100% about the 14060m. I am still kicking myself for not getting the last one my AD got in. It's part of the reason I don't take long now to decide on a watch.

Oh wow, I am so glad you posted your new GS. I love, I mean love, that new model. It is amazing! Please post up more pics, I would like to see more of that green.

Just my opinion.

It's all good dude. We can't all have class.

I turned down a Hulk 4 years ago. Wasn't for me.

Harry-57 · 19 August 2020, 07:44 PM

Congratulations. Two fantastic watches.

That Seiko is well wicked. I might be tempted.

As for the LV, well, it's the LV. Enough said.

APPRF · 19 August 2020, 07:46 PM

Congrats, most people who didn't like it before now do. Wonder why

I like how you did a back turn when you realised you are being offered one

Manu74 · 19 August 2020, 07:48 PM

Congrats on both!
Hulk is one special watch!

Runnin' Rebel · 19 August 2020, 08:16 PM

It’s a unique watch this Hulk

Ranger67 · 19 August 2020, 08:20 PM

Congrats, getting some cryptic posts lately

Hollie_Rollie · 19 August 2020, 08:51 PM

Congrats! The hulk dial is a stunner

1William · 19 August 2020, 08:55 PM

fooey · 19 August 2020, 10:11 PM

so....an SA in an AD just popped one out of the back and offered it too you and you weren't on the list for one?

buckwheat · 19 August 2020, 10:16 PM

OP smart move.
The Hulk might be the Ugliest Rolex made in history.
I have passed them up on my collection many times.
The Deep Sea is the flagship of Dive Watches why buy a low level green Rolex?
It looks like a Liberal Snowflake Watch.

beshannon · 19 August 2020, 10:22 PM

I have passed on the green submariner several times, I do not like that shade of green.

Watchflair · 19 August 2020, 11:00 PM

Ha Ha that's incredible congrats!

scarlet knight · 19 August 2020, 11:03 PM

You hit the daily double! Enjoy them.

Avs Fan · 19 August 2020, 11:10 PM

Robf52 · 19 August 2020, 11:14 PM

Hulk #1 on my wish list. Enjoy and wear in good health.

Polarexplorerii · 20 August 2020, 02:43 AM

LOL, nice one. Congrats

Odie-r · 20 August 2020, 03:35 AM

Congrats on your new Hulk!

Aberdein · 20 August 2020, 03:50 AM

The hulk is a smart looking watch without doubt but am afraid for the money it costs its not for me, am not into to green to that extent. Blue most definitely as in the TT Blue sub or stay traditional and go for black. However if someone want to give me a Hulk I wouldn't refuse..

1968scode · 20 August 2020, 03:59 AM

Congrats!

Chiboy · 20 August 2020, 04:13 AM

Congrats OP!

This is a good thread for seeing who reads the first post, and who reads the whole thread.

CaptT · 20 August 2020, 04:14 AM

"Oops, forgot the second half of my post....."

Ha, to leave out such a critical part! Congrats on both, the Seiko is really interesting, and the 116610LV just stunning. Cheers.

Yeah, I kind of surprised myself with that one too. It did take a half hour or so of wearing it before I said yes.

Great pic, I find green watches the hardest to photograph. Could be the green or my lack of talent.

I love the Willard too. I knew I was bringing that one home with me right away. The Hulk actually too a little time to decide.

Correct. But it was one of the owners who offered it to me.

I agree. If I didn't already have the black SS and TT blue subs I likely would not have gotten the green.

So we've all been doing it wrong. The proper way is reverse psychology and say your not interested at all. Somebody try that with a DaytonaC

Tag_asian · 20 August 2020, 05:11 AM

Great story. Congrats on both watches.

doramas · 20 August 2020, 05:43 AM

Very respectable.

A matter of taste.
