I have owned both, but the Hulk is my favorite! If you want blue, go for the 116619LB.

[elcompa]

Dump the Hulk and for go Blue.

I'm no fan of Green as I have never owned any clothing that would go with it. Now blue....blue goes with everything I wear.

I have had various blacks, blues and whites in the Rolex line up and been quite happy.

Both very nice watches but I would have to go With the blue.

you have a perfect do-anything duo right now. if you must have a TT diver, add to what you have.

[busytimmy]

The LV is more my style. Less flashy and almost less recognizable than the LN version. That and it's the Rolex Green. Gotta have it!

[roklee]

Blue!

[travisb]

I couldn't part with the LVC..

[watchwatcher]

116613 if it's the sunburst.

Yes, for the new sunburst I think I would trade any SS Rolex right now.

[Wangensten]

I like the 116613LB with the new sunburst.
Go for that on;)

can't vote as too tough of a question. Both are great. I own both and other watches would go before those two.

I'm trying to pick out between the 2- hulk v. bluesy.

It depends. I've tried on the Bluesy, but not the hulk so here are my thoughts.

The Hulk has color, but it's not so colorful and playful- it's still work appropriate, something I would feel comfortable wearing at the office. The green looks right on the Sub, it looks like a "tool watch" color to me, and it's got the sunburst dial to make it more interesting over the standard black subs. And I love green on a Rolex. I see this as a step up in terms of flash/playfulness from a Sub. It's somewhat polarizing due to the green, but it's a SS Sub. I'd also imagine this would retain its value better than the Bluesy.

The Bluesy on the other hand, it's flash, it's showy, it's a jewel of a mechanical watch. This is something I would probably not wear to work. Unless it's winter and it's hidden underneath my shirt and sweater sleeve. This is more of a polarizing design. To me, this is the fun, weekend, mid-life crisis watch.

So two totally different designs, with two totally different emotions to it... can't say which one. I was leaning toward the bluesy, but then saw a bunch of hulks here and now want a hulk again...

Good analysis. I agonized between the two and ended up buying the Hulk. I may buy the YG Blue Sub in the future. I prefer solid metals over TT (and I've owned both). For a Sub, in order of preference: first SS, then Gold (yellow or white), then TT. For Daytona, SS, then Gold or Platinum, then TT.

I own an old style 16613 Bluesy and just bought the Hulk 2 months ago, so I would have to say own both. They both have sunburst dials that really pop in natural light. I really enjoy alternating between the two Subs and some days I wear one in the morning then switch to the other in the afternoon. Cannot make a bad decision between these two watches!

[jjnd08]

LVC for me.

16613 might make it a tougher choice.

[VICI]

Up to you .... ;)

[lmcgbaj]

Keep the Hulk. Trade the Daytona for the bluesy.

[Green Arrow]

[Agricola]

Keep them both!

[richard371]

The gold is a scratch magnet and way to flashy for my tastes and I don't like the polished links. If they only made the blue in SS

[sea-dweller]

Hulk, for sure

[Racerdj]

Blue without question!
