I do wish they kept the 120 click bezel on the GMT like the 5 digits. Then you could time stuff like the Sub and use it for another time zone. Having the 24 click they have now is kind of useless.

Hulk. Love the Oyster bracelet, Jubilee is a bit dressy for a tool watch.

I own and love both so it's difficult to pick one, but I would say I wear the LV a bit more often.

I prefer my Pepsi over my Hulk, but really enjoy both. Can't go wrong with either.

I have both and I love them both. I really don't want to choose. If I had to choose - if there was no getting around it..... Arrrggghhhhh...

Pepsi I guess. I mean - I use it for my Avatar so that must say something.

The level of bias is astounding. With no exceptions, the only correct answer is ‘either’ or ‘both.’

Both are superlative timepieces that look amazing and function flawlessly. As functional tools, both can do their respective tasks well. As manly jewelry (let’s be really honest - modern tech works better) they bring polish and distinction. As a hobby, they soak the bank balance yet still make us smile.

I wish there was a way to change my moniker from BLNR Nairobi to something less biased, because more and more I realize the best Rolex will always be the one on your wrist.

Another vote for HULK, but it probably doesn’t matter because it always wins these type posts anyway. Lol!

I don't own either, so my opinion is only based on seeing these on other people's wrists, but I would say BLRO by a mile. The green is interesting and Rolex green is obviously iconic, but I would say the BLRO is a much more versatile watch in terms of fashion. But if you're not thinking fashion or if you're not looking for a versatility then it should come down to which one excites you when you look at it.
I'm guessing you don't care about GMT features either.

Both fantastic pieces. Though for me, the LV easily wins by quite a bit.
