Hulk owners: Is it your favorite watch?

So, having not worn my LVc for four days running, I find myself missing it. I usually match my watch to the style and color of my clothes, but I guess I will start bending the rules a bit. I was wondering if fellow Hulk owners with other Rolexes in their collection feel the same way.

I really like it but is is not my favorite Rolex. It probably is "best" as part of a collection, but still can hold its own as a stand alone (yes I do own one)

I think many 'think' about if it goes with what they're wearing but you will realise it's not there to compete with what your wearing..its a piece of colourful jewelry at the end of the day.

definitely my favorite, but it's been neglected ever since getting this. So lately I'm all confused ;)

If I were an Army guy, I think I would wear one of these on a NATO as my daily. I really like the green, but unless you are wearing ACUs everyday, it might be too much for some.

Right, except for the spelling.

I enjoy my hulk, but I don't wear it as much as my other Rolexes, and if I had to part with one of them it would probably go first. Not that I'm thinking about it, just sayin'.

That said, it's still a beautiful watch and I enjoy it.

Is it my favorite watch ? No. Favorite from the watches I own, yes.

If I had to keep a single watch from my current lineup it would be the LV C.

Until my yellow gold sunburst Sub arrives whenever that is, Hulk is my favorite for the moment.

The old hollow center link bracelets and stamped clasps really don't compare to the new style. Just sayin'!

Actually I agree. I love the green. I love when it matches what I'm wearing. I also love when it clashes with what I'm wearing. It has so much depth and beauty. I've been wearing mine for 2 weeks straight.

Favorite in my collection.... No....love it....yes. My favorite would be the one I'd keep if I had to get rid of all but one. I love all in my collection but LV wouldn't be my one and only.

i dont own one but was very tempted to choose it over the polar exp2 as my only rolex (used as a beater watch)

if it was not for the lugs/case shape it would be my favourite rolex

It was my favorite for a long time, but the SD4K occupies that role these days. I love my hulk and it would be amongst the last to go!

It's my absolute favourite and gets the most wrist time. I do wear mine as part of my rotation but none of the others stay on as long. I never worry if it matches what I'm wearing either; I wore it with a pink shirt yesterday and I'll be wearing a white with black pinstripe shirt today

It certainly did get a lot of wrist time when I owned it! In the end however I didn't want to deal with that much green on a daily wearer. YMMV

Much to my surprise, it has become my favorite, and it does not matter what color cloths I am wearing. It's a fixture on my wrist.

It is my favorite green watch. It is also my only. For me it is part of a collection and is an add on to a multi-watch rotation. I love the green ceramic and the sunburst dial.

Good to know how others feel about it. For me it was an impulse buy, I was never attracted to the Sub and I hate green, so I am really surprised how it has grown on me.
