which one would you pick the black or the green and why? and which is in higher demand

Alain Lee · 11 October 2012, 10:04 PM

I am probably with the minority here, but the green sub doesnt appeal to me that much. I still go with the black sub, if it is your first sub.

speedo · 11 October 2012, 10:08 PM

depends: as a one and only watch or rolex or even as an only sport rolex, i would go with the ln just as i had done. if you have any other black face rolex sport watch, go for the lv.

strafer_kid · 11 October 2012, 10:11 PM

I would agree - black sub does it!

Brushpup · 11 October 2012, 10:12 PM

Black. No Question. You will never tire of it. Green, you might after a while.

david91686 · 11 October 2012, 10:23 PM

hate to be repetitive , but depends on your current collection of watches..... for a first or only watch definetly the LN. ( Black)

cedargrove · 11 October 2012, 10:28 PM

If my first then black, but I have the black GMT already so would get the green.

Rocco22 · 11 October 2012, 10:31 PM

Hulk all the way. The green is amazing and really stands out from the crowd.

artschool · 11 October 2012, 10:33 PM

i bought a black one.

Thorien · 11 October 2012, 10:46 PM

Having seen both at an AD in the UK here, I'd go black!

mjclark32 · 11 October 2012, 10:51 PM

I'd also get black, have a 16610 and love it

kilyung · 11 October 2012, 10:58 PM

I like LN better

Roller07 · 11 October 2012, 11:01 PM

i would pick the "Hulk"

Why? Just look at it and you will know why

and i don't pick watches based on demand or popularity.

Engi · 11 October 2012, 11:07 PM

Black for me, it's a more versatile watch IMHO.

Ciao

floater156 · 11 October 2012, 11:08 PM

I think the black is classic and will look better with most outfits.

FremStar · 11 October 2012, 11:10 PM

I went GREEN! Purchased mine from Tony G (justrolexes), loved it so much I purchased another one from DavidSW for my younger brother! Can't go wrong either way, however, for me it's not easy being green!

masterserg · 11 October 2012, 11:20 PM

LV.

I like your ties Sam!

kbutler971 · 11 October 2012, 11:44 PM

I had an LV and traded it away for a NOS 118239. But it sure was cool while I had it, the green dial in person really need to be seen. Especially in the sun. Personally, I'd still prefer the green over the black but both are winners.

eric23 · 11 October 2012, 11:46 PM

Get the black first.

beshannon · 11 October 2012, 11:52 PM

Black for me.

I am just not a fan of that green at all.

+1...I don't even like the green on the GMTII C. If it had a red hand instead, I'd own one right now.

nick c · 12 October 2012, 12:04 AM

Black sub here

globalmedia33 · 12 October 2012, 12:12 AM

I picked this

Trurolexer · 12 October 2012, 12:14 AM

Sub...Black.

BCNJ · 12 October 2012, 12:19 AM

I love the black, but bght the green is beautiful in it's own way and not on everyone's wrist. I've yet to see another in the wild while I know no less than 30 guys with a black sub of some varity. Go green (or don't and keep us in the minority)!

J.jun · 12 October 2012, 12:21 AM

Black!! A forever classic!!

slcbbrown · 12 October 2012, 12:22 AM

If you have a pile of watches (including black), get the green. But, if you are talking about buying the watch you'll be wearing most of the time-- get the black.

Don't wanna get flamed for this, but I've seen the green a bunch of times out there....but always on women. Last time was on the train yesterday when I went to pick up my Sea-Dweller, a nice woman in her late 20's making faces at my baby daughter had one on.

Jefyulo · 12 October 2012, 12:33 AM

Black is the best!
