If you want a new hulk in the UK you'll have to go grey unless you are a VIP or are willing and able to spend 50k+ on 'other' items. And that doesn't mean a bunch of other in demand ss pieces. We are talking PM + other jewelry or off the shelf watches. Sad state of affairs but that's how it is.

Hulks are still going up in price. I deal with the place in the link below a lot and believe me they sell hulks at an alarming rate, I've seen them SELL at 13.5k gbp in the last 2 weeks.

I am based in that region too. I would avoid DMR and Mappin and Webb. Have you tried Birmingham?

More chance of a three some with Meghan and Kate than seeing a sub, gmt, sea-dweller 43 or Daytona in a uk AD.

you’ll likely have to go grey for a hulk as they don’t go to non preferred customers.

Or drop in and see DavidSW in Orlando, although his website doesn’t have one in stock just now. Expect (after exchange rate etc) a hugely inflated price. UK grey will work out cheaper to be honest.
