Although I am a big fan of the Hulk I would have to go with the Batman. I think from an everyday wear stand point the Batman would fit easier into my wardrobe.

LV. Not close. Not a fan of two tone bezels in anything other than Pepsi configuration.

Not a fan of the ridiculous names I would vote for the 116610LV.

No contest BLNR. Never understood the appeal of a green watch, unless of course you are Irish.

Wow. Surprised that the LV is ahead. What a difference a year or two makes when the BLNR would have beaten the Pope in a poll! Both great watches.

Good poll!
Choice for the Hulk, I find the GMT bezel busy.
And I prefer a more quiet bezel (these days)

(LV or LN??? no brainer for me:LN)

I do not appreciate at all giving nicknames

The SubC LV is hands down my favourite watch that I own and am wearing today.

Divers watches are my alltime favourite (used to be a SCUBA Instructor) so...

And No, you don't have to like/love green to fall under its spell (not one of my favourite colours...by a looong shot)

Also, it is much more easy to wear and versatile as it may seem...
As a matter of fact, the very nature of its always changing dial keeps the boring factor very very far away...so it is absolutely a possible candidate even as a one watch-only IMO.

A Rolex Submariner...with a twist...

So which one did I vote for

BLNR > The reason being is because I'm not too fond of the light green bezel on the Hulk. The dial is freaking amazing but it comes down to that bezel :(

Both great looking watches for sure. BLNR for me if I have to choose only one, I love black and this one has the black dial and half black bezel.

Sorry, but personally the green does not appeal to me. I love the BLNR

I own a BLNR, but I have no desire to own an any LV.

Green just isn't my style, although I admit 116610LV is a very good looking watch on the wrists of others.

I have blnr and my buddy has the hulk. Both are equally sick in their own way. I can't own both unfortunately but I'm really happy with my blnr but wouldn't mind having a hulk instead either.
