Awesome. Only thing better than a perfect watch is three perfect references.

Fantastic! The LV is my favorite Sub reference and if in a position someday, I'd like to do the same.

When I had my 16610LV(s) they were unpopular. Never thought they'd be at the point they are now...traded them without a care. At these prices I don't ever think I 'll ever get one back. After paying $5750 for a BNIB 16610LV in the past, I don't think I can in good conscience pay triple. We'll see...

Man it’s really hard to choose. I’m in the honeymoon period with the 126610 right now so I’ve been wearing it a lot. I think if I could only choose one it would be the Hulk. But mainly because a long time ago I sold it and I instantly regretted it and had to get it back. So I know I can’t ever make that mistake again.

Yeah the original LV is the sleeper of all three. It’s got a special vibe to it. Retro yet modern with the maxi dial. It’s one of my favorites for sure. They’re getting harder and harder to find in their original unpolished state with a complete set. I think they will continue to be a winner.

Big congrats and happy birthday.

I do wonder if Rolex will bring back the green sunburst dial at some point in the future.

Certainly demonstrates diversity. ;).

Having a Kermit and a hulk, I’d swap the Hulks dial for black.

Wonderful collection. Green is good.

Tell me again how you "politely explained the differences"!? I have tried this multiple times and it has NEVER worked for me.

Again. Congratulations on the collection!

Triple would still be a comparative steal.

I'd like to see all Rolex trade back to those levels.

I remember the ebay/joma 2013 Black Friday special of a $4,999 black nd sub, bnib sans warranty (ofc).

Good times.
