Hulk or Smurf ?

 
 By: Ted O : March 23rd, 2024-03:48
I love monochromatic watches! Letā€™s assume they have the same value, even though they donā€™t as one is stainless steel and the other is white gold, which do you prefer aesthetically ? Why ? ...  

Smurf, for me.

Mmmmm šŸ¤”. Think a slight preference for the Hulk

I love blue

But I would get the hulk, that shade of blue looks too much like plastic to me.

Smurf if any at all

This green dial is not pretty

Assuming both have the same value, from horological importance Iā€™ll vote for the Smurf.

Both unique and special as Submariners go, however the Smurf is the ā€œfirstā€ ceramic bezel Sub and also the first white gold Sub. The Hulk on the other hand while again unique, itā€™s an homage to the anniversary Kermitā€¦ But one canā€™t go wrong here, itā€™s a m... 

Blue one for me

I love, love blueā€¦my favorite colorā€¦howeverā€¦

I would go with the Hulk here, I have the BLNR and think that is just the right amount of blue, with the black, and may be in my top 3 watches ever that I have owned, and I have owned a lot of watchesā€¦I feel the Smurf is too much of the blue that I love, ... 

I certainly appreciate the warmth of the metal of the Smurf.

But I find the green dial of the hulk just so captivating. But honestly, I prefer both of these! ...  

The blue one for me.

Although I always hated the nickname.

Blue. For me . . . all day every day!

If I had to choose only one Rolex this would be it. I am in love with this watch.

My one wish is that the center links

not be polished.

Smurf for me!

I still regret not pulling the trigger when it was around. I think what bothered me a little was that the hands "felt" a bit skinny compared to the dial ... ...  

Both are quite nice.

Personally I always would choose blue over green.

Smurf any day! šŸ‘

Go blue.

 
 By: Sportster : March 25th, 2024-23:44
The green dial in the steel watch could have been timeless without the sunburst dial - just keep it matte for the really good stuff. They did this with the milgauss as well - it was perfect with the matte black dial - then they go sunburst blue and all of... 

Had them both... sold the hulk
