High price for The Hulk

[Krash]

I saw a Hulk at a local jeweler about a year ago (maybe a little more).. They are not an authorized dealer but they have used watches. They were asking $18k. It wasn’t exactly in pristine condition and I’m not sure if it came with box and papers. I didn’t ask. I wish I did.

I’d love to see Rolex continue to be contrarian and bring it back in a 41mm size. It would do wonders for the Secondary Hulk prices.

nah :) 2 tones sub over Hulk every day for me, even green is my fav color :)

15k hulk is naked…..17-18 full set

Are you going to buy one?

[Zach69SS]

Easy fellas, no need to nuke the Op, I think he was talking about the AD calling for current reference not a Hulk, I don’t think anyone has a 4 year old NOS In the safe.

Op, go see the ones on 47st for $15K remember to buy the dealer reputation and the condition of the Hulk.

Some of these green dial submariners and the 50th anniversary PM GMTs are being modified with fake green dials because of the resale value.
So be careful.

Does not hurt to see them and then decide. Price is not always everything! As you can see by some of the stories on TRF.

Happy Hunting,

Will you buy one?

There won't be another Hulk. A visually similar model may be introduced in the future but the Hulk will remain unique.

The case size and lug profile, the shorter clasp, the silky smooth, silent, 31 series movement and the non AR crystal. Even if Rolex reverted to the 11 series size, case design, non AR crystal and shorter clasp you won't find that lovely movement inside it.

Is it worth 15k or more? Eye of the beholder. I think not.

I would assume the OP is talking about the current reference Green Bezel Submariner as opposed to the Green Dial/Bezel Model.

If OP is getting calls from the AD, he is talking about the new reference 126610LV (Cermit/Starbucks), not a hulk.

Why couldn’t it be HULK CPO at AD?

I’ve seen them at mine. Not for $16k though😬

I think what OP meant was that Rolex prices OVERALL are trending down and that he had received calls from AD for ROLEX, not necessarily HULK.

I love the hulk , it’s high on my wish list ..

[Rolexnabzy]

Prices are generally softening on these, previously needing to spend £19,000 pounds plus on a Hulk with a new card, was offered this for mid £16k albeit with no white tag...from a friend who has a store in Hatton Garden....he also told me in his dealer whatsapp groups he is seeing full set unworn stickered 2020 old card with white tags for £15k or about $19,500, these were about £2000 more just a few months back...

I do not think Rolex will reintroduce the green dial in SS Sub (Hulk) any time soon and even if they do it will be the PEPSI of the Subs, limited pieces with very high grey market pricing of over $20K.

Rolex marketing and strategy is too smart to mess with an icon, that is why Daytona, Pepsi, Blue / Green SD are always hard to get with limited production compared to other models. That is the Rolex recipe of keeping the hype and luster

I wouldn’t buy anything on 47th Street in NYC.
These folks are "gonoffs"……thieves.
Don’t be fooled by their TikTok videos.
They prey on the lemmings.

Meh. Been buying watches and jewelry there since my Dad took me in the 60's with no issues and a lot of fun...btw, you misspelled gonif.

The Rolex AD in Hudson Yards sells preowned Hulks all the time, so they could certainly call the OP if a Hulk came in. It just wouldn't be new stock obviously. They also charge $25k+ from what i've seen over the last few years for preowned Hulks.

Great watch, but a lot of green. Not something I'd want as my only watch, but ok in a collection.

As for the nickname, fits the big bulky case perfectly. Even if they do re-release it. The hulk will be one of a kind.

I personally hope they don't re-release it only because I'm afraid of what the internet will bestow as a nickname. I can hear it now.... slimmer lugs, Bruce Banner.... OMG just no.
