For me a black sub is a must have piece. I'm sure they will both hold their value as well. I personally love all the SS sports but I just can't get over the cyclops (my problem I know) Either way you can't make a bad choice. Enjoy!

I want to add a owners view point. When trying on the LVc, it should leave no doubts you must own it. Most of us that own the Hulk are crazy passionate about its style for a reason but it’s not for everyones personal style taste. If you get that feeling when trying it on in person, then you must own it as nothing else comes close to what it’s color combo brings to your wrist. It will haunt you from that moment on.

If you absolutely can't swing it financially, then yes, do the trade.

If you can swing it, keep the ND and add the LV.

No way. I’d always want to have a black Sub in my small line up. The LVC is just too green for me and not something I’d want to wear day in and day out.

Thanks for all the input, guys!

I have some more time to mull it over (until another LV shows up at my AD). I would normally just add it but I'm also waiting on an SS SkyD and don't want to overdo it.

Maybe I could part with my PAM372 instead ...

You can’t really go wrong with any SS sub IMHO. Personally would never sell or trade my 114060 because it is perfect as it is in its simplicity and goes with absolutely any situation/outfit and the hulk is very green indeed. But you should not ask strangers on the internet about taste and colors, it’s a personal thing and in the end only you can answer this question ;)

But in all honesty, if you need the trade to fund the Hulk, then do it. But if you don't, keep it, because the 114060 is an absolutely sterling watch.

I would say, it will be handy to have something else to call on, and give the Hulk a rest in certain situations. Even super heroes need a rest


Very Nice Picture. The perfect pair.

I like this idea very much.

I had 2x 14060m and 2x 114060 all traded.
Last year bought the green ceramic.

It sometimes clashes a little with some coloured shirts but it's a fantastic watch.
And a marvellous Sub.

Go and then save for an old Sub/SD/ or black dialled DJ/explorer to settle down.

I'd do it. Prefer 14060 for no date sub.

A few years ago, I was faced with the decision of needing to flip a polar 16570 for a 116610LV.

It was an EASY call for me, as I was absolutely infatuated with the LVc and "needed" to have it.

Five years later, and I haven't had one regret about the flip, and I love my LVc.

I'd do it but for me the price isn't worth it unless you absolutely can't stop thinking about it. Nowadays a hulk costs literally almost double that of the ND and that makes it hard to justify since the ND is practically the same watch just in a different color.

I see no issue in selling a 114060 and getting an 116610LV; seems like a great idea!!!

I traded my 114060 and a omega smp for a BLNR. Couldn't be happier.

I pretty much traded in my black for green and it is my most favourite SS I've ever owned, as pic above gloriously testifies to.

Go for it.

The LV is more versatile than most people think. For all the occasions I wore my 14060, the LV would have been a fine choice as well.

BOL on your decision!

I would keep both, I plan to purchase a Hulk first then a 114060 next. They look great together.

If you can keep and add the LV, do it. If not and you must flip towards LV, do it. :)

Just got the call! Time to make up my mind.

Might just add it for now ... I think I might end up parting with my PAM372 though. I'm still waiting on my SS SkyD too ... can't keep them all!

Not a big fan of the hulk, I’d add a Bluesy and keep the Sub C ND...
More versatile imho...

Plus with your ND SUB C (SS) and SkY D (SS) you need some
Variety and Flavor which the Bluesy will give you to spice
things up a bit ...

Here’s a visual to help you out !!!
Personally green isn’t that versatile to me...
Christmas and St. Patrick’s Day and that’s about it ...
Good luck !!!

^ I do love blue! But I currently have a SS YMII and the SS SkyD I'm waiting on is a blue dial. Also on a list for a blue dial Royal Oak 15400. Green would add some diversity.

Depends on the rest of your collection. To me, the 114060 is the ultimate versatile watch, whereas the LV is the ultimate complementary watch.
