I don't like the ceramic LV's nickname (The Hulk). Does anyone else feel the same way? If so let's hear some alternatives. Personally I'm in favor of no nicknames but let's hear them if you have them!

WJGESQ · 3 August 2010, 11:14 AM

Emerald Sub?

Leperchaun?

ParisDakarBmw · 3 August 2010, 11:16 AM

St. Pattie Sub

esm · 3 August 2010, 11:20 AM

Ceramic Green Sub?!?

Art 1 · 3 August 2010, 11:23 AM

Neither do I, I don't care for any of the nicknames given to Rolex watches and have never used them.

psv · 3 August 2010, 11:42 AM

Yeah, I pointed that out in a thread earlier today. At the end of the day, once we are far enough removed from the 16610LV, I think people will simply call it a 'Green Sub'.

gqllc · 3 August 2010, 11:44 AM

How about LVc

me too...no nicknames....it's sacriligious...what would Tools say....he'd say "use the proper terminology & model #"

SUPERDOC · 3 August 2010, 11:53 AM

I'm sorry, but I love the 'Terms of endearment'

Bluesy
Blacky (what I call my TT black dial Subc)
Platty
Yachty
Panny (my Panerai)

I especially love 'The Hulk'

and an Incredible Hulk it is...

I think that many take these watches too seriously...

This hobby is about having fun!

Rolesor · 3 August 2010, 11:54 AM

most of the nicknames come from JJ actually lol

buke45 · 3 August 2010, 12:15 PM

I love the name. Im in sales and I like that it is hard to forget once you hear it.

BarkMaster · 3 August 2010, 12:20 PM

It's not a religion, so it's not sacreligious. I like it a lot, but I don't worship my watch. I say call your watch whatever you want.

President Barky?

Eric88 · 3 August 2010, 12:23 PM

How about Green Giant

RIS memorize every model number and use them in everyday conversation.

Hopefully your advance naming will bring good luck and a Pepsi-C will be at next year's Basel!

sakuraba · 3 August 2010, 01:21 PM

How about gangGREEN?

Seriously, LV-C works for me.

scl6118 · 3 August 2010, 01:30 PM

I don't like Hulk either. I like "Greenie", even though I called the LV that too.

jets · 3 August 2010, 01:36 PM

How about 7up? We already have root beer, coke and pepsi.

ersnyder · 3 August 2010, 01:48 PM

Yeah, all the nickname stuff doesn't appeal to me too much either. But, I do have trouble remembering all the actual model #'s so an occasional nickname does help with the poor memory!
