Do not. Take deep breath. Tell yourself you own an awesome watch and your urge will pass. This happens to me frequently! Heh heh.

Tough choice but in the end the Submariner ND wins.

Get the Hulk!!! Get what sings to you!!! I bought a 116600 SUB-C and about a month after I got it I saw and held the HULK. Sold my SUB-C and bought the Hulk and haven't had a regret since!!!!

Things do have a tendency to look good at the AD! (Not saying the Hulk isn't of course).

Keep your 114060 for now and give yourself a self imposed cooling off period.

I stopped going to the AD long ago, otherwise I would have flipped again or spent more money on expensive things...in 15 days it will be 1 year since my last watch, a record for me!

Yup, those watches look great at the AD, that's part of the whole trying on experience..has to do with the lighting and ambiance..really, that's why I stay away unless I'm really planning a purchase. Sort of like going to McDonald's just to look around..once your in, you a few calories richer..

What's the rest of your collection like ?

For me the Hulk is a collection watch.

I have the 114060 ad prefer it but from the sounds of things you're really into the Hulk. I would not have it as my only watch. Would need at least one other steel sports watch.

I loved having the Hulk on my wrist at the AD, but being unsure if the green would stand the test of time with me, I eventually went with the LN.

I love my Sub date and it will be my favourite watch until the day I die, and even though I'll never stop drooling over Hulk pics, I know I made the right choice.

Something to think about. Enjoy whichever you go with

Start saving for the hulk and if you still like it when you can buy it then get it. Otherwise get what you like at that point.

I would keep the one you have...and plan to buy the Hulk as the next watch in your collection.

You KNOW that you want both of them and once you get your first "taste" it is almost futile to attempt to repress this urge...give into it man!

Keep the ND and buy yourself a pair of green lensed sunglasses. You'll soon get sick of the green.

Even though the green isn't exactly for me, I still think the HULK is very cool and unique. If you like green, I'd say go for it. You could always save up for another ND down the road if you find yourself missing it.

The hulk is a beautiful watch. But, for me it would see little wrist time except for St. Patrick's Day.

Just my opinion - feel free to flame me!
