Before getting the LVc I felt the BLNR was primo. However since getting the LVc it hasn't come off my wrist. I wear my LVc daily - goes with most coloured collared/cuff shirts for work - at least in my opinion

Green watch with a red sleeve top. Clash of colours no?

It's okay to clash...but just don't be boring.
Great choice, OP. I was weighing between the two recently, and I chose the Hulk as well.
Here's another pic with clashing colors. lol

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

Nope, as I don't judge others - wear what you like when you like. What matters is wear in good health. Like I said I wear the LVc with most colours. Though purple is hardest to match with green

116610LV. it is very versatile. People tell you that it is not most of the time they don't own it. I prefer it over BLNR.

Having had both recently... it really is a toss up. I found the Hulk hard to match or "feel" like I was matching any clothing. The BLNR was awesome and imho a little bit more flashy. If I had to keep 1 it probably would have been the Hulk. The glidelock was a bonus of all bonuses and I just loved the green! Beware this is coming from someone who was so in and out of love with the orange Planet Ocean that I bought and sold it twice.

Sorry, I have no love for the green thing... BLNR all the way, and you could also have bought a glide lock bracelet with BCL and switched it....
To each one his own, in the end what counts is that you're happy with your choice.
Congratulations!

I originally acquired the BLNR to introduce a splash of color to my monotonous collection of black/white/silver dials. I liked the idea of adding color that I recently got a Hulk as well. The green dial is so dynamic depending on lighting, yet subtle enough to wear it with almost anything. I find the BLNR more useful as I travel quite frequently, but am still pleased by the weight and color of the Hulk. As stated already, you can't go wrong with either choice!

Before I bought the Hulk today I took a fairly good look at the blnr. To be honest, in the first 30 secs it looked pretty nice with the half blue half black bezel. But after a minute it turned into a pretty usual watch without any special appearance. Th half blue part of the bezel "faded" the far the distance was and you had to really pay attention to recognize it's blue.

The Hulk on the contrary stood out in the first second. I don't think I'll have a problem in matching dress with the green color of the Hulk. Cuz at the end of the day, it is supposed to stand out just like a gorgeous jewel like watch. If you're not that kind of person and prefer to be "descrete" then just go and buy a normal sub.

I love my Hulk. It stands out but doesn't appear to be "too much" like th TT gold/steel. Coulnd't be happier.
