Have to go black dial so LN is my choice.
Green dial just too bling for me.

Green - cause if you get bored of it, you can flip it pretty quick for a black one.

Black if it's your primary watch, Green if you have a collection

I agree... I couldn't have the LVc as an only watch. The black suits any occasion and outfit

If I were in your shoes, I would get the Hulk first. The Sub C will not be difficult to re-acquire at a later time

I'd start with black. Black is more of a daily beater.

Green just a bit too flashy for daily Wear for my liking

SubC - Black or green

Green absolutely. It is not flashy at all, from distances looks as black dial and dark green bezel, it’s hard to find and rumors about discontinue in 2018 which would increase the value even more. The Sub C black is a very basic model and can find it everywhere and anywhere for even less than MSRP price, minimum -10%

SubC - Black or green

Congrats on your new purchase - let’s see... SD or Exp?

The sub we all grew and loved is the timeless iconic black! For me that’s the one I would get personally but I prefer it with the date.

I prefer black but if you are intrigued go for it. You could flip back to black with minimal/no damage financially.

I don't know if you would "regret" selling it BUT that watch is a classic and if you go for a green sub you may start to miss the subdate because its an every day watch that works with almost everything as opposed to a green watch.

Black!

There are just as many LNs as LVs on Chrono24. You'd really have to like green A LOT to chose the LV over the LN.

My green watch is #12 in my collection, after several black divers. After the green one I went for a fifth black diver (SD43).

I like green but not everyday with any attire. I like it best when wearing dark grey or black clothes. I feel like wearing my green watch less than once a month but the truth is when I'm in the mood for it , it's like a very strong craving.

If the Hulk would be your only watch I would hold off. The Hulk is usually a 2nd watch, or 3rd or 4th. Partly because it does not go with everything. Just my opinion. If you can keep both that would be best
