Weight - An extra 100g makes all the difference !
So after a little over a month of wearing a watch which with the bracelet weighs about 65g I’ve now had the Hulk on my wrist the last two days.
Naturally the (additional) weight was very noticeable for the first while, similar to when I bought my first ever Rolex or indeed when I purchased my first platinum watch. It’s a noticeable change, maybe even a reassuring one as you can actually feel the watch on your wrist.
Here’s my ~150g of Hulk, who would have known ~90g of extra “weight” would be so noticeable!

Well I’m a fanboy so I’m biased, however I alway appreciated the weight of Rolex.
As you said it well “reassuring”. The Hulk is a special piece in the Rolex lineup. Have fun with yours.
I think this one comes in at 195g..
The micro adjust on the clasp makes the weight a non-issue. You’re definitely right about the reassuring weight.. it lets you know where your money went :-p Love the Hulk! It was not on my radar back then. I wish I was a sub guy when that came out ...
