I’d get the ln at mrsp over a hulk at grey. At AD I’d get a hulk. I like both. Ridiculous they’ve become so unattainable.

You should buy the watch you want to own the most. Compromise costs more and results in more watches, some of them being models you didn't really want. If the present LV is discontinued, there will still be loads of them in circulation and some still coming through ADs.
Your money, your choice. |

As others have said succinctly, buy what you want and not what you can get.

Based on your description, I feel like if you get the LN you will still want the LV, but if you got the LV, you would not buy an LN in the future. Hope this makes sense. Like others have said, buy what you really want, not what you're offered. Watches are like women, you don't want to have to force yourself to fall in love with one. It never works out in the end.

Buy black keep waiting for the hulk, if it becomes available then buy the hulk too. After that if you dont want the black sell it. Simple :)

Always go with the black sub. The green is an homage to the real deal like a commemorative coin or something.

Ii say wait for the Hulk if that’s what you want. You can always get a black sub but the green will be special. I had no purchase history and got my Hulk in less than 6 weeks so their is hope depending on the market you live in.

Buy the watch you really want.
If you want a Hulk, go grey now. If the rumours are true and it gets discontinued, the price will only go up. |

Personally I would rather have the black one but you should get what you really want.

You're not going to get a green one within a reasonable time frame, new from an AD. It's really not all that anyway. Trust me. BTDT.

The LV is great if you have at least one watch to rotate it with.
The black is the better all-rounder. However, the hulk is, without question, the more special and enamoring piece. As you want the LV, I don't think you should compromise.
