As an everyday piece I would go for the black Sub. I only wear my Hulk for certain special occasions. Either way both are still lookers. Post a wrist shot by Thursday.

Black Sub for its versatility. But, you can't go wrong with either.

Black because you can always slap any color NATO on it

Black because it's versatile and unlikely to become tiresome. The Hulk is awesome, and green is my favorite color so I did consider it for a daily wear, but in the end I went black as I just wasn't sure I'd be happy with green all day/every day. A black Sub is a timeless choice.

The LN is the safer bet for everyday wear but the LV is a beauty. Tough call for sure.

I see you are based in UK. Which AD have both of these models? Its something of a rarity. I would go for the LV.

I would go black for everyday, but that's just me. Both are great choices. Good luck!

For me it would be the LV.

Just for how the dial changes between the bright green and looking black
in certain lights.

LVc is pretty dark most of the time and out in the rare UK sunshine it really shines, so I'd have that now.
