Hulk!!!!!

Is the Green Ceramic Sub versatile enough to be my only watch?

Either I sell my TT date just to fund the hulk or keep the DJ and buy the white or black face Milgauss. What to do?!?!

Green ceramic sub is versatile. Some here may disagree. You really need to just try on the green sub C and both milgauss and select the one you like best. Good luck with your decision.

How versatile the watch will be for you depends on how you intend to use it day-to-day and your work environment. If you wear a suit to work, I'd say it would be limited. IMHO the Hulk is more of a casual sport watch.

I just don't have enough shirts that would go well with a green watch. But that's me.

Gotta say, I'm pretty happy with mine in most any situation or color combo. Remember, green is pretty prevalent in nature!

Not a HULK owner, but I think it's versatile enough for everyday, all occasion wear. JMO.

I don't know your business or dress situations, but it is a sports watch with a flair for the color green - just sayin'.

So keep the Date or DJ handy for business or formal situations.

It's very versatile. I have more than one Rolex, but I often wear the Hulk for weeks at a time regardless of what I wear or what I'm doing. Never give it a second thought and find it goes great with everything. Never have experienced a clash of any kind, and I doubt if anyone has thought I have made a fashion faux pas.

THe beauty of a Rolex and most "high end" watches is that you can wear it whenever, wherever, and with whatever you like and it will always go.

I wore my LV daily for almost a year before I pick up my LB and the LV still gets the majority of my wrist time.

I have actually found it goes with far more options than expected. In fact, I found that the shirts that have green or green contrasts are the least likely fit. For those, I go with my 16610! But, in all honesty it is an amazingly beautiful watch!

Yes, the Hulk is versatile enough to use daily. You don't have to match your attire to it. Just wear it.
I have a Hulk and can really wear it daily. It matches all the trees :)

Completely agree with Sam.
I wear my LV-C with anything and never second guess it.
Can easily be an "only 1 watch"...

I think it's very versatile and could wear it everyday. I would get the Hulk over the Milgauss but that's me. Good luck!!!

Humm, I think dan's opinion might be a little biased. Uh why do you have more hulk toys than all the kids in my neighborhood put together.I can only imagine the look on your neighbors faces as you were setting up rageville.
