I like it too. I hope that’s not a basil from an actual hulk, That would be a huge shame for a hulk to be sitting there bezel less. Anyways, I think these forms need more people modeling their watches. Somebody made a beautiful mind of a submariner and posted it the other day.

I really don't like the carpet to not match the drapes, and similarly, don't like bezel and dial mismatches
Much prefer Hulk to Starbucks |

I swapped the bezel myself. The bezel pops off and on with minimal effort. There are youtube videos showing how. NOTE: I bought the bezel and insert as one unit. I don't recommend nor do I think you can swap just the green insert; you would need to get the insert and bezel as one piece for this to work. |

Except the "Hulk" bezel does not match the dial, both in color and finish ie. matte vs sunburst. In fact, many people don't seem to like the "Hulk" because the mismatch is so jarring and pronounced.

Looks as good as a Starbucks to me. This is a mod that wouldn’t bother me at all.

theoretical question- looking at this mod, would a GMT bezel be swappable? (BLNR to BLRO and vice versa?)
i'd imagine it would be, but would be tough getting the bezel in the gray mkt? |

Who’s to say?
A skin tone that struggles with green isn’t helping either. This picture is a much kinder match, unlike the first series. |
