Yes.... The ultimate answer is both. But given your collection… I’d say, if you get up the morning and are looking to put on a submariner with some pop or color, you’ve got that covered! But if green is really something that you love, then go for the Hulk.
But I do agree with you… I think every collection needs that black dial, do it all, Rolex

I know a guy that just collects and loves pilot watches and can well afford all Trinity pieces. Pull the trigger on what speaks to you. Diversification just for the sake of diversification in the end is simply approval seeking in my opinion.

Another one for the SD43. It's very comfortable, and wears nothing like the Deep Sea. Certainly thicker than the Sub, the SD43 doesn't have that top-heavy wobbly feel you can get with the Deep Sea (at least from my experience wearing a DSSD for a short time). It's too bad you can't try on the SD43 to get a better idea of how it feels - maybe you have and I missed it in the posts. If so, my apologies.

Hey tac34vt, ageed👍 the sd43 definitely isn’t as top heavy as the dssd. It’s somewhere In the middle between the dssd and sub.

The HULK is unlike the garden variety subs. If you can find one its a real game changer.

I prefer the seadweller as the lugs really do it for me. Also having the gold subs I don’t think an LVc is required. That said, I would try it first if thickness is a concern. It’s certainly bulkier than a sub or even AP44 given how it sits proud of the wrist.
