I currently own the HULK and use it as my daily wear watch. My question is would getting rid of it for a TT Blue Sub, or the SD43 or even the JC Deepsea be good trade off? Or is the Hulk a keeper to never unload???

HogwldFLTR · 6 March 2019, 02:28 PM

Wow, you're the one who has to wear it. Wear what you like most and not what other people tell you to.

eltonbalch · 6 March 2019, 02:34 PM

Don’t make the HULK mad...you know what will happen...

one10medic · 6 March 2019, 02:34 PM

True. As much as I like the Hulk, I can almost trade it out even for a TT Sub. It seems crazy to me that a watch I paid 9k for can be traded for one that's over 13k new.

So true!

That's a decision for only you to make since you are the one wearing the watch. Who cares what other people think.

MickCollins1916 · 6 March 2019, 02:50 PM

I know the market is nuts right now and whatnot, but it will always be “no” on getting rid of this watch for me. 5 years in and I’m still nuts about it.

jerryguo · 6 March 2019, 03:24 PM

I wouldn't do it.

Hulk wins

marlopez · 6 March 2019, 04:19 PM

Keep the hulk. It amazes me every time I wear mine how much I enjoy it. I didn’t care much for it up until the day I got it.

I suggest saving and getting a second watch.

Never cared for the LVC, too much green. That’s my preference, go with what you like.

Andad · 6 March 2019, 04:57 PM

The 116610LVc has too much green for me (I chose th 16610LV).

The blue TTc is the one.

abozz · 6 March 2019, 07:13 PM

The SD43 is my absolutly perfect Diver, but keep your Hulk!

Harry-57 · 6 March 2019, 07:15 PM

For me the answer is simple. Get both. If you can't do that, keep the Hulk.

Shamorai · 6 March 2019, 08:03 PM

I’d definitely keep the Hulk. (And I am).

htc8p · 6 March 2019, 08:10 PM

I would keep the hulk too that dial is mesmerizing

I prefer the SD43 as a daily wear. A perfect Rolex Diver for me and a perfect fit for my 7.5-7.75 wrist. I am not a TT fan and while I have owned the TT Submariner I would stick with the Hulk before I made that trade.

cwilliams21 · 6 March 2019, 10:10 PM

No idea

Which one do you like the most?

JPS · 6 March 2019, 10:15 PM

The Hulk is a nice watch, but for me in doses! It's too much green to rock over and over again, but got to go with what you like.

brandrea · 6 March 2019, 10:18 PM

Are you bored with it? Do you have anything else on your collection? I’d maybe consider adding one of the ones you mentioned instead of trading it.

samson66 · 6 March 2019, 10:21 PM

Green doesn't do it for me, especially as a daily. If you are asking this question you probably have some of those same thoughts. I'd go with a SD43 out of those three. I'm not a fan of the bluesy at all. Beautiful watch but a whole different path as a daily. JC is great if you have the wrist for it. Sea Dweller wins!

Hodog16 · 6 March 2019, 10:23 PM

The only watch I would let the 116610LV go for is the 116619, which is exactly what I did. Otherwise I would keep it.

Cru Jones · 6 March 2019, 10:25 PM

Flipping for a dream watch makes sense to me. Flipping for any of several watches makes less sense to me.

mml4 · 6 March 2019, 10:44 PM

There was a recent thread from a member who sold his 5 digit Sub for a six digit and now regrets the move. Similar posts are common fare here to the point that sellers remorse is more common than buyers remorse. The 116610LV is an iconic reference and if you can at all see your way clear to keeping it while adding to your collection I would.

VicLeChic · 6 March 2019, 10:50 PM

Might as well make the most of current market condition, cash in on the Hulk and get the more versatile SD43 with regards to colour.

johnny.tran1 · 6 March 2019, 10:52 PM

keep the hulk

Gerry62 · 6 March 2019, 10:58 PM

I have owned the TT Submariner 116613LB and the LvC , then sold
I prefer the classic Sub 116610LN

I choose the Deepsea J.C. is wonderful

Frits1980 · 6 March 2019, 10:59 PM

Since its your daily, No. SD43/JC to big/heavy. TT to much flash. Stick with the Hulk, despite the green it will work better for every day then the ones you mentioned.

ps: Whats with the incomplete/stupid thread titles on this (Rolex)forum? "Your Thoughts…" Its eather clickbait or simply laziness. What about a title that actualy contains some information on the question. Mods? Put in a rule/advise on adding the subject in the title or something. These generic thread titles are spreading and are getting annoying.

bp1000 · 6 March 2019, 11:03 PM

Its all personal preference

I bought the LVc sub before the TT LB sub and still have them both. I personally prefer the LVc way more than the blue sub. Although i would sell neither, the characteristics are unique for both pieces.

The SD, fantastic piece of engineering and i sorely regret not adding an SD4K to my collection before the prices went mental.

For me, anything over 14mm thick and > 42mm just feels too big and i have large wrists. 39-40mm is the sweet spot for me.

So i wouldn't make the trade, even for the LB.

LVc is a cracking watch, i think you should hang onto it.
