Incoming - 116610LV - AKA 'HULK'
Been dreaming of getting a Rolex for quite some time now. After months dilemmas I finally made my mind up, I wanted a Hulk. After a weeks of searching I got my hands on a brand new, never worn example with all stickers in place.

Just wanted to say a big thanks to everyone on this community that helped me on my journey towards my first Rolex!

Every AD I called and visited wouldn't even put me on a list. So I went grey and couldn't be happier.

Congrats. It’s amazing how at some angles (in photos at least) the dial looks pure black

The color of the dial changes a lot depending on the light.
