This will probably end up being a near 50/50 outcome. For me, I like both, but would probably go for the green Submariner.

The thing with these two models is that they both look good in pictures, but in person the BLNR looks just like it does in pictures and the Hulk looks 10x more amazing.

I'm going to be boringly predictable, as usual.

Which one do you prefer? If you like them equally, which one can you get soonest or cheapest? Or how about this for a left field question? Which watch incorporates the features and functions that would most usefully suit you and your activities?

I work/travel in two time zones most days. I would find the GMT function useful. I also need to cook food, time parking, log times taken for jobs, etc. The GMT master fulfils both these needs - although not both at once.

For the two watches in question, the decision for me would be easy. Hulk. Been there, done it. But I can't tell you what to like.

Depends what else you have. Small collection or one and only BLNR. Big collection with a lot of versatility, HULK

BLNR over the LV for sure

Not a fan of the superhero names.

I’ve had both for the last 2 years.

As a one and only? BLNR hands down. Way more versatile.

The LVc is a great piece but I couldn’t have it as a one and only, unless you absolutely love green.

Having said that, if you’re buying new I’d say LVc. The BLNR needs to be on oyster bracelet for me. Not a fan of a sports watch on jubilee but you may be.

I do prefer the oyster bracelet. Do you have any photos of them please?

Have BLNR on Oyster, and waiting with my AD for LVc (could be a long one, they said 2 years, but then again they said the same for BLNR and that came in 8 months)

I have both, love them both, so I recommend you buying both of them if you can afford it.

If you can only have one watch, I would take the BLNR on a oyster bracelet. Looks awesome!

My companies colours are green and yellow, so the Hulk was the choice for me.

If it wasn't for that one thing, I'd get an Omega.

Hulk is my favorite and I actually think you can wear dressed or casual. Its that dial.... its addicting when the sun hits it. I actually get more attention with the BLNR than the Hulk indoors.....outdoors its a different story

Hulk and it's not even close. Color dial vs plain dial, no contest.

Just when I thought i got tired of the green hulk, I took it traveling with me and went diving with it. Fell in love. It doesn’t seem versatile but it is!

The thing i've always said about it with the batman is..if it wasnt for the bit of blue on the bezel..its just a GMT. Whereas the green bezel and green gold dial make the other one a special piece imo

I personally think they’re two hyped , popular watches . Why not be different and get something against the grain , left of the field , something with substance that says something about you , instead of following the herd .
