Are there any of you who does not like the color green but still owns a Hulk? What are your overall thoughts after owning a green watch? Why did you pick the green over the black if you did not like green?

I'd be shocked if anyone who doesnt like green would buy this watch. You would have to be dense or hoping to flip it years later for a profit as nos.

ericmli825 · 24 July 2017, 03:54 AM

I think a lot of people don't like a green when they see the picture but in person it is just beautiful. I was reluctant to buy the hulk at first but once I saw it in person I was sold!

I'm in a similar way, yet different. I'm searching for my first Rolex and am very close to pulling the trigger. It's not that I don't like the color green. It's that I really don't like the Submariner. But there is something about the Hulk that calls me. There's something about it that makes it the exception to my general rule of not preferring the Submariner. It's very much on my short list.

The AD lighting sold it to me.

coleburns · 24 July 2017, 04:49 AM

It's just an amazing looking watch. I have never been a fan of the black sub but was blown away when i laid eyes on this. You need to see it person and this was right up my alley. If you want something with color, this is the watch.

Exactly my point

brmeyers · 24 July 2017, 05:02 AM

In Person >> Pictures
That is why I got one...twice...lol

nyc2la · 24 July 2017, 05:41 AM

Best Rolex for the money!

Cru Jones · 24 July 2017, 05:50 AM

I didn't buy it because I "love" the color green.... I bought it because I LOVE the watch.

That being said, if you hate the color green, I don't see how you could like this one.

gates · 24 July 2017, 06:03 AM

Yep - in person sells this watch, I took one outside in the sunlight and BAM! I took it home - as said, pictures do not do this watch justice.

GB-man · 24 July 2017, 06:06 AM

I love green and the watch. Can't imagine disliking green and buying it. Also just can't imagine disliking the color green!

Let me put it this way...Green is NOT one of my favorite colors...

Yet the LVc is my favorite watch

...Own one and you'll understand why

Somebody needs to change that ugly thumbs down.

jctrolex · 24 July 2017, 07:14 AM

I don't like green. I went to see it in person because of all the rage. Didn't like it in person neither so I didn't pull the trigger. It is also a color that is hard to match cloths with. The dial is a nice color, if you like green that is.

slipperman · 24 July 2017, 07:18 AM

double negative in the thread title.

AK797 · 24 July 2017, 07:26 AM

In truth I'm not crazy about green but I've always liked the LVc and when I saw it recently in a dealer's with the best lighting I know for Rolex, it pretty much blew everything else away, including the other Sunburst dials. When it is on, like Jordan Spieth, it's just about the best there is, but other watches are on more often I find.

Sub/GMT · 24 July 2017, 07:36 AM

Green is not my color too IRL, but Rolex did a very good job I think here.....love my Hulk....and my 116718

Pius XIII · 24 July 2017, 09:49 AM

Quite the reverse for me. I absolutely love the color green, but I just can't get myself to like the LVc.

Why would I dislike the green and own the watch? I happen to dislike the green ceramic, and... I don't own one!

Mystro · 24 July 2017, 10:02 AM

Since Rolex's hallmark color is green, I am not sure why you couldn't ask the same question with the color black on a Rolex watch. Look up the meaning of the color green and all the associations of the color green in many cultures around the world (prosperity, health, life, calming, in-control, etc..). Green on a Rolex Sub makes perfect sense.

Indeed. So sensible that it took... 50 years for Rolex to do it.

Bigsykedaddy · 24 July 2017, 10:18 AM

Green is not my favorite color , however I do like it. The LVc dial is mesmerizing in person and really needs to be seen. That being said I am not a huge fan of the milk green bezel but I still love the watch.

If I had to choose between the LVc and the 114060 the 114060 would be the winner

Old Geezer · 24 July 2017, 10:47 AM

I have one and love it. Green is not my favorite color but the watch is stunning. I wouldn't have it as my only watch but in a small collection, it's a nice change up.

AJM914 · 24 July 2017, 11:08 AM

Green isnt my favorite color but this watch is stunning.....got it a few days ago and i love it. Its the perfect watch for casual wear or dress. I love it more and more everytime i put it on!

Etschell · 24 July 2017, 11:14 AM

You guys may bash me but I was underwhelmed when I tried it on today.
