Get what you want. Simple as that.

If you think resale- the hulk will do better at holding value. Subs generally do.

But I had a choice back in the day to get BNIB from an AD a 36mm EXP or a Pepsi GMT. I bought what I wanted the EXP. The 36mm Exp are not worth much these days where the pepsi is.

I recently purchased a Hulk but the blue Milgaus was definitely in the mix along with a Blusey and the blue dial Yachtmaster. The Milgaus had too many polished surfaces for me, but it is stunning if you can keep the fingerprints and micro swirls to a minimum. You definitely won't see too many in the wild and I am a big fan of the funky second hand. You will likely get a better discount because it is less popular. If I can get past my own polished surface phobia I may need up with one myself. As always, buy what YOU like!

The Z-Blue Milgauss is a fantastic watch. Bought mine about a year ago.

buy the Z new if it's a keeper, or hunt down a nice used one to avoid a substantial hit when flipping.
