Just added this to my small Rolex Collection...





So I ended up trading away my 4 year old Omega Dark Side of the Moon + Cash for the Hulk. It was in pretty excellent condition, some very minor marks on the polished side of the case and the bracelet was in great shape. It didn't appear that it was worn much at all. Some very minor clasp wear, altogether I am pleased, even if I put a little more cash in then I wanted.

I'm still waiting for the Deep Sea D-Blue I have on order, I needed something to tide me over...LOL

nice. congrats. I read somewhere that people think the hulk is more comfortable than batman...does that make sense? Is the Sub band/case different than GMT? thanks.

Fliplock is good, glidelock clasp is another level. I own both.

Love it. Anyone that says they don’t like it, hasn’t owned it.

Thanks guys! I figure once my Deepsea D-Blue comes in, my Rolex collection will be complete. One Day I may add a Daytona, but no other Rolex models tickle my fancy except possibly the Yacht-master 40 with platinum bezel.

I agree. Glidelock is a game changer.

Congrats OP! You made a wise choice in my opinion.

The D-Blue will most definitely clash with your HULK, thus you should sell the HULK to me Congrats on getting the HULK!
