I have an LVc that I chose over the BLNR. I love it and wear it everyday. But after seeing the BLNR for the first time in person last week, I know I could've picked either watch and been happy.

The hulk is unique and special. Nothing looks like it. Stunning.
I vote for both.

LVc for me as it popped more side by side with the BLNR plus I have a blue bezel already.

Hulk is nice but not very versatile when it comes to what you can wear wth it.

You said your favorite color is blue, so the BLNR seems like a win win for you. I don't get the argument about the LV being more versatile. Beautiful it is, but versatile it isn't. Consider the 116610LN if you want versatility and brushed bracelet. If bracelet isn't an issue the BLNR seems like the way to go for you. Yes, PCLs show scratches easier, but it's also relatively easy to take a cape cod cloth to in between service. The brushed bracelets are all around more durable, but much bigger of a pain to get those scratches out that show. Replicating a Rolex satin finish on 904L, no thank you, but PCL's not so bad. I guess it compares to the old heselite be sapphire debate with Speedmasters. One is easier to damage, but also easier to repair DIY. The other is more durable, but not so friendly for DIY repair of blemishes.

It depends what you do on a daily basis. I'd pick the Hulk, but not if I traveled regularly for work..

Ok, ill chime in here. Before I owned them both, I was a very big batman fan based on pictures from the internet/catalogs, So i went out and brought it. I recently just got a hulk about 5 days ago and I dunno why this watch just feels more solid, like a freaking tank. I never owned a sub before this so i guess I now know why they are so popular it feels more solid then the GMT i can guarantee you this. As for the looks the batman does go with a lot more outfits because of the neutral colours you can dress it up or down, the hulk is great for casual cloths. In person I can tell you this, the HULK looks better, yes the BATMAN in certain light looks BOSS but i find in so lighting situation it looks dull, this cant be said for the HULK the dial is amazing i gaze at it and it looks like a Jewel there is no lighting condition i feel that it looks DULL. I love the batman but I love the hulk more and I didn't think this would be the case unless you see them in the flesh and wear both I think you will come to the wrong conclusion just through pictures

I personally find the GMT to be the most boring sports watch rolex make. 5 black dials out of 6. They add half a blue bezel and people go crazy which just shows how bored owners must be. At least the hulk has some colour. Very nice watch
