Have to agree. It's absurd and I don't like where this is all going.

Him asking or the one paying? Because sooner or later, someone with more money than brains will, I'm afraid.

Is that in contrast to those of use who already own it and don’t expect to sell it?

Was never a fan of the GMT LN so I would do the trade at a heart beat!

Thanks for clarifying. I would lean towards the LV just because the GMT to get is the BLNR/BLRO. And the LV is the Sub to get.

Lol for sure you can, but I love using the jumping hour hand function when traveling without affecting the time. In that regard I love traveling with a gmt.

For an even trade. Yes, in a heartbeat.

Sooner or later Rolex will discontinue hulk imo.

There are tons of GMT LN out there in the wild. Not really difficult to obtain even after discontinuation.

I'm a GMT guy, and I'd still do that trade to get the LV. Whoever gets the LV is getting the better deal IMO.

Who is the question aimed at?

The LN owner or the LV owner?

One would be crazy to make that trade, the other would get the deal of a lifetime.

I'll leave you to decide which way round that is...

Depends on your pre.

IMO. Hulk green looks like some invicta Watch color. Tudor green is so much better if you are def looking fir green.

I wouldn’t consider it an even trade if I was the one with the Hulk. Other way around I would do that deal for sure

So how could this even be remotely considered an even trade.

The LN is selling for under retail on the secondary market - the LV is impossible to source from an AD unless you are a VIP customer & are selling for a 50% premium through grey dealers.

The Hulk is great. I have it, but it's my least worn watch. I wear the hell out of my BLNR. BLNR is more comfortable. I think both are great watches, the GMT can be more versatile. But, the Hulk is a stunner that I would never get rid of. My kids lust after the Hulk. My wife and I, love the GMT.

Did you go ahead or Is there a long waiting list for the HULK?
