Among all the green Submariners they made ... the first is still the best ... BY FAR

No disagreement here. That’s a stunner

My first Rolex was an LV. It was a flat 4, and because I’m a high-functioning idiot, I sold it.

I’d say that flat 4 LV serviced its roll well by getting you hooked on watches, and I think this passion of watch collecting turns us all into high-functioning idiots. You’re in good company here. |

Breaking out my LV for my 70th
Got this back in 2004. Bertolli green is iconic and rarely seen.

Just spotted this custom TT Hulk at lunch today. Was absolutely sick in person. The wife was rocking a Bluesy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Love mine too! The early flat 4s are the ultimate collector model from the past 20 years.

There was a time when I had two green Subs (both in foil) to choose from. Hulk won, with a slight edge over Kermit.

It was indeed a “Hulk”. A local jeweler in Dallas got it done for them. Not sure how with the green ceramic/gold knurled bezel. Looked very cool to me. That said, I was looking at his wife’s Bluesy the entire lunch lol

Too many factors to make the “best” claim. “Best” in what way? Certainly the feel and build is very different between a five digit Sub vs Ceramic six digit watch to the point they are apples vs oranges taking color out of the equation.

Absolute fact.
The 16610LV is not only the best green Sub, it is the best Sub of them all - Maxi Dial, perfect case size, and the light and thin hollow link bracelet is much more comfortable than the bulky modern version. The best Sub in every way… |
