AD made me so angry today!!!!

Looking inside an AD's window today and I was drawn to look further inside.
Within in a matter of 15 mins I had 4 Rolex's on the tray infront of me.

I got so angry because they kept putting watches in front of me offering me all sorts of refreshments and chit chat.

Whilst trying on one of the SS Subs I felt myself feeling crazy inside, then I started shaking as the anger grew!

Next thing I looked at my wrist and the Sub had turned GREEN!

So I brought it lol

I have to add that if you have not seen one if the Hulks in person you really need to. It took me by complete surprise at just how stunning it is.

Thought I never wanted one and would never own one but it's fantastic looking in the hand.
My advise to anyone thinking about a Hulk is go and view one the images do not do this watch justice.
Stunning!

Are you sure it was anger that made it turn green? Or was it envy?

Sounds like a tough day but you're right, the LV is a stunning peice. Especially how the dial changes color under different lighting conditions and angles. Enjoy!

Congrats! The same thing happened to me. I had no desire for the Hulk until I tried it on. Next thing I knew, savings account got lighter!
