Just a bit of shade being thrown at the LVC these last few days, figured I'd share a most recent compliment.

Just doing some shopping with the lady today and after picking up a crystal angel for the woman that used to watch Superdog, the sales guys says:

"I hope you don't mind me saying, but I just love your green Rolex submariner. I'm not ready yet, but I like watches and that's my all time favorite. Someday, I'm going to save enough and I'll have that same watch".

We spoke for a few more minutes and wished him a pleasant holiday season.

Needless to say, I enjoyed the moment.

They don't look "cheap" as another poster implied! I have been complimented and more folks have noticed my Hulk in the last year than in 18 years of wearing my TT Bluesy Sub which has more "bling" factor. People seem to notice the Hulk for some reason!

OmegaJJH · 30 November 2015, 04:56 AM

I've yet to see a Hulk in the flesh.

They do look fantastic in the marketing pictures.

Cheap??? C'mon - it's a Rolex for christ sake.

Green has never been my color of choice but the day I saw the Hulk at an AD and tried it on, I was a believer. An absolute stunner.

The only watch I like more in my current collection is the Smurf.

x2 it truly is a watch that one must try on and see in person. internet pics do it no justice. the LV is a stunner and stands out from the sub pack without the 'bling' of a TT

Great! My co-worker complimented on my Hulk a few weeks ago. Great feeling.

If I were rich enough and that happened to me I would have given it to him! One day! Oh what a feeling it would be!
