Now you see green...


Now you see black...


I've just purchased this brand new last week! Now I'm a proud owner of the Hulk that looks stunning in both pictures and in the flesh. I'm glad I can join the Hulk club like everyone else here on this thread.

To make myself look at my watch more often, I've deliberately turned off date and time on my MacBook Air and will enjoy looking at the time on my watch instead :D

For those concerned about green not being suitable for every attire, you have nothing to worry about. The green WILL go well with every attire and you will stand out from the rest of the crowd who owns a black sub.

Here's a video of me unboxing

My LVC with various Natos

Here are some pics of my LVC on a bunch of Natos that I purchased from cheapestnatostraps.com

I had the stainless steel strap on it for about a month and a half before I removed it. I am a part time artist and love the color the natos add to my watch. Not for everyone but I enjoy switching them out on a daily basis.

Enjoy

Even though I have the Hulk already, it's always great looking at pictures from others.

I got mine from Rolex boutique at Harrods last month. When I first enquired about it, which was 2 months ago, they said the last one was sold 2 months ago. The sales woman gave me an estimate that they should stock another one in a months time. So I just kept ringing them up everyday nearer the time. I could have bought one from watches of Switzerland at Knightsbridge as they had one in stock, but wife insisted that i should wait for the one in Harrods to be available in order to maintain her Harrods Black tier membership. I was told that normally once an AD sells one, they normally stock one 3 months later.

You might want to call around more places or check out watches of Switzerland at Knightsbridge if that's still available.

Thanks!
Yes the colourchanging is the best part of it. I can never tell if it is light/dark green. It really depends on the lightning and if you are inside or outside the hous.

Hi, I had the chance to try it last week at a french GTG and as many said before, you have to see it IRL to really appreciate it!

Now I want one, and I can't wait to see how it will look on a brown leather nato

I'm glad you appreciate this beautiful watch. When I was deciding which watch to buy, my wife said to me the green sub looks nice and said the colour goes with the iconic Rolex colour. My response to her was "what!?" as I didn't like the idea of a green watch. Then the more I looked at it, the different shades of green on the dial just hypnotised me. I wonder if Rolex had secretly hired Paul McKenna to instil his hypnotic powers into the green dial.

Again, what an absolutely beautiful stunning watch.

Love the CLV. Dial can look striking to non-descript, depending on lighting. Wouldn't trade it for anything.
