When is the Hulk coming back?

Is it just me or does anyone else think Rolex will bring back the Hulk in the coming years? In the updated version...

It's very disappointing to see how Rolex is reducing the number of colored dials on the Sub (no more Hulk or Smurf). More black dials means higher production numbers, but fewer interesting references. We'll see how popular the new models are- and the Bluesy suddenly looks more interesting to me now.

YMMV

7-10 years, based on the Kermit/Hulk history

I’d say it’s a good bet we will see it again at some point. The Kermit is back so they’ll get around to re-releasing the Hulk someday

Hulk will probably come back in a decade+.

Black dials are mundane. Black isn't even a color...it's the absence of color.

If they got rid of the Smurf, I can see Rolex getting rid of the Sunburst to replace it with a YG Hulk. I can see them doing this for the 75th anniversary

Totally agree with this. A YG Hulk for the 75th anniversary would be epic. Would prefer if they did it with a flat green dial similar to what they did with the YG GMT anniversary model.

I’ve been told that it takes a lot longer, with more fails, to make the sunburst dials. So in making just the black dials they’ll be able to speed up production.

It all started with the 50th Anniversary LV, so it’ll come back for the 75th Anniversary.

I’m confident it’ll come back. May be 8-10 years like others have said, but Rolex will bring it back again.

At least a decade if you're looking for its return.
