2020 New Card Hulk - Last of its Kind

[teabags001]

First of all congratulations.

I wonder if having a date post discontinuation will add any value. I think this has to be one of the handful that came in after it was discontinued. Mine is by 23 days.

Certainly one of the very last and latest dated I would venture to say. Even if AD wanted to just hold onto a watch this hot for a while and it get dated say 6 months down the line when they’d sell it - they’d catch so much hell over that with their reps and Rolex superiors that they’d possibly even lose the whole line ! Lol .. guessing, I could be way wrong — all I mean is, I bet yours is definitely one of the last and latest dated .. I’ve got a “new style” 2020 card for my “hulk” and its early July I need to go look again for exact date .. and that’s about the earliest I’ve seen with New style card give or take a week... so that means roughly 2 months of hulks were sent out to the ADs in that time frame... hmmmm I wonder how many all together ... I bet each dealer got maybe 1 maybe none .. 350ish dealers in the United States .. maybe 200ish in the US??? No idea about world wide .. all just guessing here before I get bashed I understand it doesn’t really matter it’s just a cool touch to have the new warranty card but end of day does not matter I get it

Completely false. I got my hulk in feb and it was still the old card. New card starting coming out around the time Rolex reopened. So not sure if the old 2020 card hulks are even more rare.

Even if true, they aren't part of the "last batch" unfortunately and probably don't get a boost in any collectors novelty.

The last of the last with the 2020 card represent the absolute peak of demand for the model, when they were basically impossible to acquire, and only available for a ~1-2 month period. There isn't any other comparable timeline for the hulk to segregate models. Basically, 2020 is the most interesting thing that happened to the Hulk in its 10yr run.

What’s false? All 2020 produced watches have a 2020 new style card with matching serial No. The reason your Feb watch has the old card is because it’s not a 2020 produced watch. Likely a 2019 that got carried over and sold to you in 2020.

How can you even prove your statement? It’s just your opinion.

My watch was delivered and sold to me all within a day. I know that for a fact as the manager contacted me directly the moment he saw it and we discussed how it came in his shipment that day. 2020 new style cards started coming out around summer when Rolex reopened. You’re telling me all watches sold before summer were all produced and shipped in 2019?

Correct. Not all 2020 watches have the 2020 card. It is strictly for watches that shipped and delivered immediately post lockdown (or Summer 2020). The pool of Hulks with the 2020 card are exceedingly rare.

This will remain in the collection with his friends.

Have a great weekend everyone!

All I’m saying is that the new card watches are for sure 100% 2020. I see your point about the some old style cards being too being produced in the early part of 2020.
