I was not a big fan and sold mine. Then I decided I really like it so I bought another and really have grown to love it. All the color changes are amazing. Much more enjoyable than the black.

Been wearing mine daily for over a year and a half now, and love it.
Took a long walk just yesterday and was constantly staring at it in the sun.

No. Love the different shades of green in different light. Wearing more business casual at work which works well with this piece so have lots of opportunity to enjoy it.

That was me. I wish I'd kept it because the value has gone up since, and it would be a nice occasional watch, but realistically, I stopped wearing it and the green was just too much for me. And the money from that went toward the BLNR.

Thanks!
i really like the Hulk but i think i would. Last time i had a green shirt on i changed at lunch so it didn't even make it the whole day.

I really want to think i wouldn't get tired of it though as its a killer looking watch.

A Sidestep. I have both and can’t decide which if I have to chose one. Green is refreshing, never grows old on me.

Hard for me personally as an only piece, but would love it as a compliment to a black and white dial!

That's me anyway..


Agree

It sounds like you already know you want the hulk but you're trying to get some reassurance. Just get it!! Haha

I loved my Hulk and the green was fine, but I sold it cause I only wore my Platona, so I sent it to a better home.

It's a classy piece i must say but i think it's too much green for me. Although i'm not really a fan of the color green.

You know what they say once you go green. Your pocket bill hurts !!! Haha. You will not regret it. If you like it in photos I believe you will like it better in person. If you do not like it then it will be very easy to unload

No. I would tire of a standard lacquered dial or even bluesy (sunburst or flat) before tiring of the hulk dial.

I can (and do) wear the Hulk in any outfit / occasion. It is a stand alone watch for me, it doesn't have to 'match' any specific style.

I had one for a while. I think the green would get old if it were your only watch; whereas if you have multiple other watches, the green would remain special.

Just thought I would update. Managed to try one on and pictures don't do this watch justice! Went to every A.D possible and put my name down. Now it's a waiting game.

4 years plus of ownership and I still get mesmerized by it. Don’t believe it when someone says it’s not versatile.

I just got my second one a few weeks ago. The first one I returned to the AD a few days later (2 years ago ) after not liking the bezel at all.

Going to see if this one sits better for a least a year. Dial is absolutely amazing, the pastel like bezel............jury still out for me.
