Somewhat agree. When I first read your title I thought that may be a tough one Pepsi or hulk. I personally Reach for the pepsi more often. But the 12LV? NOT EVEN CLOSE!

Hands down, Pepsi BLRO over the 12LV!

I’ve got the hulk and Pepsi.....I’d probably turn down the cermit if they called today with one.......does nothing for me, I’ll let them sell it to some flipper.....glad they did away the green dial as the hulk becomes that much more special!!!!!!

Right on the money. I feel the exact same way. I would reject it as well.

Quite possibly the two most useful pieces in the Rolex lineup. I’d get both if could swing it with the AD.

Thanks everyone! Tough one. Both are within reach for me and shouldn't be too long. Though interestingly my AD said Pepsi will actually take slightly longer than the Kermit based on supply/demand etc.

I'd get the Pepsi first then add the Cermit later (or at the same time :D)

I’d start by looking at whether I want a diver or a travel watch.

I can’t imagine not having both

Well, there are some nice and relatively inexpensive watches that are both divers (500 meters) and dual time zone.

You're absolutely correct in saying that.

One of my favorites for under $300

My mind says green sub: better clasp, timing bezel more useful than 24 hour bezel. GMT hand is actually a pain to set in my opinion, and I do so much business overseas I can do all the time zone math in my head.

But my heart is with the Pepsi for some reason. I just like the way it looks.
