    You are fortunate to have been able to aquire it at retail. Especially now that Rolex has discontinued it. The prices for the Hulk are now at $20,000! Which is nuts.

      yeah I really envy him, my dad bought me one a couple days ago for 170k HKD here in HK as my bday gift. I always wanted this and my dad said for 190k hkd he could have bought me the panda instead. Kinda regretted that I choose the AP diver in 2013 instead of the hulk as the AP diver haven't really increased in price but the Hulk is just too expensive right now.

    I never really liked the supercase but I bought the Hulk recently and I absolutely love it! Being big and very green suits the nickname so well and I think it’s suits the supercase better than other models. I have a 7” wrist with a span of about 6cm and it’s a great fit and doesn’t look big. If you have a smaller wrist then it might be a bit big but it’s personal preference.

    It's a nice watch. What I particularly like is how the tone of the green bezel insert matches the green sunburst dial. Unlike the green Oris Aquis, Rolex really got this right. So few manufacturers even try with a ceramic insert. Would I wear a green watch regularly enough to bring it into my collection? Probably not but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate it, particularly when Rolex is being a little playful rather than their usual stuffy selves.

    I was watching a Craig Shipp review recently who stated that people should not spend more than one weeks salary on a luxury timepiece (he also said the same about men’s dress suits too). In that case you spending $9K on the watch means you earn $468K annually (congratulations if that’s the case). I believe that by using Craig’s formula Rolex would lose over 90% of their sales. As I believe that the people purchasing these Rolex and luxury timepieces are spending closer to two, three or more months wages, this I believe is a much closer estimation and more representative of the consumer market AND video reviews like this are spreading the word to those who will spend well in excess of these two or three plus months salary to possess one of these timepieces. Now tell me in all honesty that spending that much of you salary on a watch make sense?

    • @heljestrand
      @heljestrand 4 роки тому +3

      I think one months salary is reasonable.

    • @beckwithtl
      @beckwithtl 4 роки тому +1

      That formula is only helpful if you execute it in its entirety. If I make 100k per year after taxes, and my living expenses are ~2k a month, I’m sitting on over 6k for savings, retirement investments, hookers, and booze every month. You drop the hookers and booze for 3-4 months and you’re rock’n a hulk. Situations vary, and the benefit here is that if a catastrophic financial event occurs, you sell and get more than your money back.

    It’s a lovely well made watch.. I think with the traditional size of the sub you can wear it almost without really noticing it . I don’t really wear my Rolex sports too often, I think I find them a bit underwhelming visually and I probably followed the crowd somewhat and not my heart when purchasing I don’t think I’m much of a Rolex guy and the time is coming when I will ship 2 out of three out .if I recoup what I paid and even make a modest profit I will be happy..

      Sub c and date just 41 both black I feel will be shipped out at some point . I will probably stick with my two tone champagne dial 41 as it’s a good watch for a guy becoming a bit older . No denying they are great watches but I think the generic design combined with lack of AR coating means they fell out of favour somewhat . When you have a sizeable collection there’s a battle for wrist time and they are just not among my favourites. I’ve got my eye on thinning down to four pieces at some point and they will be among the pieces that will go . There’s a decent return in them so it would make sense

    Beautiful watch, love the overall size, BUT, I still don't understand why so many of these high end watches with a quick adjust clasp can't make a clasp you can adjust on the fly, on your wrist, without removing the watch or opening the clasp. Having to take the watch off to adjust it is a hassle that doesn't need to exist, and at $10,000 it really shouldn't exist IMO.

      I'm right there with you. For all the praise that the Glidelock system gets, this is a major stumbling block for me too. The Omega SmP300m has a microadjust system you can quickly use on the wrist, which is why my 2017 SmP gets more wrist time in the summer than my Hulk does.
