Hulk vs Pepsi

Just wanted to get opinion on hulk vs new Pepsi aka Superman as I like to call it.
Both would be obvious answer, green sub with oyster bracelet other GMT on a jubilee.. but if you had to go with just 1

I have both. BNLRO gets a lot more wrist time.

I’d go with BLRO. For SubC, 116610LN or 116619LB are the only 2 good options IMO.

BLRO followed closely by Hulk. If I had neither and both were available I think BLRO is the easy choice.

I prefer GMTs over Subs so there's my answer.

Sub LV over the GMT for me.


I just don't agree with jubilee on a sports watch.

LV.

The BLRO has more useful complications but the Hulk is a more special watch to my eyes. If I saw a Pepsi in an AD window at MSRP I wouldn't hesitate. But given the free choice, I would go Hulk. In fact I did.

I'm wearing my decision.I couldn't get on a list for either but I was prepared to go grey for my Hulk. I don't regret it. Yet it never occurred to me to pay grey prices for the BLRO. I just wasn't prepared to go there. Which for me says it all.

Your mileage may vary.

I use the bezel timer on my Submariner for all sorts of things every day, mainly cooking but also for other things you would use a timer for.
When I owned a GMT, I never had any use for the complication, ever. Even when I took it abroad I knew I was two hours ahead (for example) so had no requirement for the 24hr hand/bezel as I could manage to work that out quickly using very little brain power, not that I was interested what time it was back home anyway.. noting the GMT was no use for timing eggs, pizza or pasta or...

Mathematically, 72 hr power reserve>48 hr power reserve, GMT>SUB, BLUE>RED>GREEN, 3285>3135 therefore 126710 BLRO>116610 LV.

Pepsi!

Even against the 16610LV! Ok, I vacillate on that depending on which one I'm wearing.
