Congrats!

You are very lucky to have the best SA to work with.

I have both Hulk and new Kermit, they are gorgeous.

Bezel is glossy

My previous pic doesn’t do the Kermit bezel justice

I have held both in same light and new Kermit and hulk have same bezel

Thanks , I had the sub -c when it first came out and can't remember how it felt on wrist. Would you say the size difference is noticeable on wrist? ... I'm already planning to nab a pepsi next year lol . I hope they don't get discontinued, I like the pepsi alot more than the batman

Yeah never liked Hulk with the green dial and green bezel combination. And never liked the square-ish fat lugs of the previous generation Sub. I avoided the prior gen Sub and went with SD4K for my black bezel diver.

That said, the new Sub and new Kermit is perfect !

Size wise it pretty much feels the same. Obviously side by side and trying it on your will feel subtle differences but nothing material. Personally, i felt the new Sub sat thinner and lighter than old Sub. Visually, the fat lugs on the Hulk did not do it for me.

Once on wrist, you can't tell.
