Another "what should I buy" thread

Seriously, it is. I'm going to have to save up for a while no matter what I purchase next, but for the life of me can't decide what. Currently I own 4 nice watches. An older Datejust TT, SS Datejust, Exp 2 Polar orange hand, & a Panerai 111.
I have 3 on my radar:
Sub no date
Milgauss GV
Sub Hulk

I tried all on all 3, and love all 3. What would you pick next with my current collection?

The thing about the Hulk is that you will never find anything else that is green. It fits a niche that no other watch fills. I wouldn't want it to be my only piece, but my hulk gets more wrist time than anything else.

Take one more look at the 116610. If no, then narrow it to hulk or sub no-date. Try both on again. Then select the sub no-date;)

I'd normally say sub no date but the hulk would work well with what you already have.

Good luck with whatever you decide on.

Hulk for sure. I mean I feel there are better watched for the same price or a little more but between the 3 you choice that's the best one.

I'd say either sub. I love the Milgauss, as I own one, but I think might be a little too close to the DJ's (especially if the SS has a smooth bezel). My preference is for the 114060 as I don't think I can wear that much green, but that's just my opinion.

I'd get one of the Subs. Every collection needs a nice diver.
