Thank you for all of the replies everybody!

Those of us who own and love the Hulk know how special it really is.
It was my first new Rolex in almost 20 years, and the love affair is as strong as ever. Granted, there are some members here who don't like it at all. It is a very polarizing timepiece. But I absolutely LOVE it!

Haha! Thanks for the opinion. I personally love how it looks on me, so I bought it.

IMO, Seems like a status symbol purchase to me. A 'first Rolex' should be a Datejust, Air King or Oystrer Perpetual. I started and could have ended with my MINT Datejust TT Yellow Gold I purchased in the mid 1990's. Enjoy your watch!

A status symbol? Incorrect.

I am a huge diver so not only do I love dive watches but I have always been infatuated with the color of the LV. Also, I have my grandfathers TT Datejust but this is my first Rolex purchased myself. The Datejust needs to be sent in for service and sized. It has been living in a safe unfortunately.

Anyways, I am into watches for passion and history.

Disagree 150%. Very narrow minded opinion.

Congrats on the hulk. I love mine and like you have a tough time taking it off but I did today for the BLNR

Even if that would be the case, what's the point in buying a "first" rolex just to flip it after a year or two to get what you actually want and probably lose some money? This just doesn't make sense to me.

On a side note, that hallway can be seen in the latest Captain America Civil War at "Avengers HQ". Perfectly appropriate for the Hulk!
