Incoming !!! 116173LN

So finally made a decision to flip the Hulk after 5 years for a BNIB TT GMT with stickers still on !!!

After 5 years, it was really time to say Good Bye to the Hulk. I will miss the Sub so In the future intend to add an LN ceramic Sub with date.

My Hulk was of the year 2013 and this new GMT two tone was bought from a dealer last month in March. I paid 1350 Euros to the seller additionally.

Can I ask you all to express your view if you think this was a good deal or not ?

A good deal is having and loving the watch you want and what makes you smile when you look at it. Not necessarily what you pay for something. Wear it and enjoy in good health!

Congrats! I am green with envy- that's one of my all time favourite Rolexes! I know you likely won't, but I've seen a few on vintage style leather straps and they look ridiculously good on them! That bezel and dial is just to die for!

Have the same reference and it has grown on me exponentially.. got to say like some of the Rolexes this one especially looks way better in flesh and on the wrist then in pics... seems a bit garish and busy in some pics but way more balanced and attractive in person..

That sounds interesting. That will also make it less flashy :)
