I've got the itch again

It's the flipping itch. Been 3 years since my last one and I'm itching for a 126710BLRO Pepsi. Maybe it's the fact I just turned 40 but the I'm really starting to dig the jubilee bracelet. I'd take advantage of the big price increase on the grey market and the 116610LV Hulk would go bye bye. The 116600 SD4k and Explorer I would stay put.

I need some Pepsi enabling.

Sounds like your mind is already made up, would be a pretty much straight swap then give or take I presume, I certainly would do that trade! Good luck :)

You already have a diver. You need a GMT. :)

Hard to imagine you won’t enjoy it. I grew tired of the jubilee but that took a few years

By all means get the Pepsi, it's a fantastic watch-but don't let your LV-c go.

Nope, nada, nein.

DEF sell the HULK while the value is out the roof.
Get all of your money back and then some.

Damn I want this one so bad .. I don’t know why it is this way, but for whatever reason the jubilee works so much better in the Pepsi than it does for the current BLNR... and that’s coming from a current BLNR owner .. while I love it, there’s (IMO) no denying that the Pepsi is better .. anyway, I also own a hulk and love that too much to give it up for a Pepsi .. but I’m the type who is only interested in buying brand new from my dealer, so in my case I’m still impatiently waiting .. been waiting so long now anyway so what’s a little longer right !?

Post pics once you get yours though, I love all the pics everyone posted in here .. surely making me want it even worse !!

Maybe it’s just me but I don’t like the green in the Hulks I’ve seen in person. On the other hand the red and the blue in the BLRO seem so deep, i don’t think you’re going to regret it one bit!! Do it!

Better keeps the Hulk and safe more money to get Pepsi, both are fantastic timepieces.

Keep the LV. I had the same thought a couple of days ago. And then the thought of not being able to replace it if I had seller's remorse got me. Keep it and add the BLRO if you can...or sell something else.

I feel like this is a summer watch.
Keep the hulk and save for the BLRO.
